When a disgraced livestreamer discovers a trove of rare vintage denim in a Colorado mine, he follows it to Tokyo -- and straight into the arms of a woman who may be using him. Caught between desire and betrayal, he soon finds himself entangled in black-market turf wars, yakuza, and a past that refuses to stay buried.
