Story
Summer had come to that town.

A young man is performing with a puppet in front of a seaside bus stop. Only two children are watching his show. However, they soon lose interest and run off.

The young man is a wanderer. He has two companions on his travels. A decrepit old doll that moves without strings and a powerful oath made a long time ago.

Just when he began to feel despair, a young girl comes to talk to him. She has a friendly, innocent smile. Following this meeting with her, the young man begins to live in that town. Spending gentle days enveloped in the scenes of summer. Encounters with girls in the sunlight.

Summer stretches on endlessly.
Beneath the vast blue sky.
Beneath the air in which she awaits.
