In anticipation of the looming labor shortage exacerbated by a construction boom ahead of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, the Japanese government has designed a plan to relax immigration laws and allow skilled laborers from overseas into the country to meet the demand. While the country faces a declining birthrate and an aging population, the film follows a construction company executive and a foreign worker who are both finding opportunities.
