It stars a multi-national cast, including Kenichi Hagiwara as the protagonist, Keiko Kishi as his femme fatale crush, Rentarō Mikuni as an employee of a rival trading company, and Alain Cuny as the film's overarching antagonist.

[1] Akira Sakuda (Kenichi Hagiwara) is a Japanese expatriate working in Amsterdam for a small trading company.

He spots Ryo (Keiko Kishi), a woman he had a crush on in high school, at the Schiphol Airport, and again in the rainy streets.

Slowly but surely, the two become wrapped up in an international conspiracy involving trade disputes, oil and politics.

Nobuo Yamada also collaborated with Kurahara multiple times, having earlier written Sunset, Sunrise and Safari 5000, and later adapting Strawberry Road for the director.
