In a tiny Tokyo café, a magical legend promises the chance to journey back in time. Over one summer, four customers visit, seeking to reconnect with lost loved ones. But the trip can last only as long as it takes for the coffee to get cold. This heartwarming, wistful tale explores the age-old question: What would you change if you could travel back? The emotional heart of the story lies in the profound longing to make amends, rekindle old flames, or simply say goodbye.
