Kenzaburo, 78, on the other hand, has only one reason in his comeback; it is to keep his old promise - his last wish - to play in a prestigious jazz club SONE with his band men back in 1950s. Hiroto helps Kenzaburo to visit and persuade his friends now living in different cities, and learns the turbulent life of his grandfather and what it means to play jazz from the bottom of his heart.
