Ines, a young Danish woman who aimlessly followed her boyfriend Lucas on a business trip to Northern Norway. At a hotel restaurant, she met Maria, an enigmatic and seductive Japanese woman. She said she was there to see the
aurora. Ines was fascinated by her and asked what she did, she told that she worked in a club, a place where you could be who you wanted to be, where you could be free, a place for dreamers, a paradise. Ines and Maria became close and went for a drive. They spent an unforgettable night under the aurora. Drunk Ines fell asleep in the car parked on the cold riverside, and before she knew it, Maria has been gone. Only red shoes were left on the waterside. Ines realized that Maria was dead. Ines flew to Japan with Maria's passport and plane ticket. She then moved into Maria's apartment in
Sakai City. Using Maria's business card with "Miss Osaka Mimi-ko" printed on it, she visited the night club "Miss Osaka" located in downtown Osaka, learning that Mimi-ko was the most popular hostess there. She was hired with a professional name, April. It was a place where men came to have pseudo love affairs. As she diligently learned Japanese and mastered the manners of a hostess, she began to receive more and more nominations. There was a regular customer named Shigeo, who was highly esteemed. They said that Mimi-ko was the only one who could get him. Ines boldly approached him and arranged to go to a
Keirin. It was her first time, but Ines won big. Shigeo was obsessed with Mimi-ko, but gradually became attracted to Ines. Finally Ines became Sigeo's "woman". At the same time, she could no longer keep what had happened to her and Maria in Norway a secret. When Sigeo heard the story, he strongly rejected Ines. Ayano, a colleague at the club, also began to suspect Ines' true identity. Ines quit the club, left Maria's apartment to avoid being seen, and moved to a
capsule hotel. At the same time, Maria's body was found in Norway. == Cast ==
