Nothing really looks what it really is when you look from a distance and so is Jinwoo’s quiet life, far from the hectic, stressful city life, tucked away in the beauty of the Korean countryside, welcomed with open arms by a loving new “family” that has accepted, on their sheep ranch, him and Seol, his wonderful niece who he loves as if she were his own daughter.But when Park Kun-young's careful and precise direction begins to focus on the details of Jinwoo's existence, slowly revealing his restless soul, we gradually discover the complexity of the reasons that led to Jinwoo's extreme choice to retire in the countryside to live like a shepherd.The arrival at the ranch of Jinwoo’s longtime male friend from university, Hyunmin, upsets all balance. Moonkyeong, the ranch owner’s daughter, who has a crush on Jinwoo, accidentally discover the two men in bed and shortly afterwards Jinwoo’s twin sister, and Seol’s birth mother, shows up at the ranch after years of absence and silence and wants to take her daughter back to Seoul.The community of that small country place, which seemed kind and nice, slowly reveals their true colours and deep disapproval of the two men's relationship. The fragile sandcastle of happiness that Jinwoo has struggled to build is crumbling and the cold, harsh winter is upon him.Giovanna Fulvi

其中第一话《交错的时空》由望月望月智充，第二话《迷宫物件FILE538》由押井守监督，主题是时间和迷宫的无限循环。《迷宫物件》是日本动画大师押井守的早期作品集。迷宫物件是一部实验性质很重的作品。这点不但可以从其内容看出，更反映在这部动画的制作方式。基本上本片大部分的画面都是静止的，完全靠著声优千叶繁的独白来带领观众——这点跟天使之卵是完全相反。更值得注意的是，大部分的静止画面根本就是拿照片经过高反差处理后再涂色而成。所以有人看完戏说：原来用幻灯片就可以拍成动画啊。这种颠覆动画制作的方式在之后被庵野秀明发扬光大，无论是从EVA中开始出现写实照片，到男女翘翘版的完全废弃赛璐络片的演出都可以看出。
