Heisei akiresu danjo is a love story that invokes the special effects imaginary monster drama scenario. A man fleeing from a panic-stricken town encounters a mysterious woman. Outside the frame is a battlefield. The viewer can only speculate what is happening from the noise. Within the frame, a modest love affair is forming. The situation inside and outside the frame remain completely different, and the man eventually realizes that this woman holds the key to it all.
