Synopsis

Shibuya is undergoing redevelopment. The floor of an old house in a corner of the city is slightly tilted. Ai, Mizuho, and Erika, who live together here, worry, struggle, drink, complain, laugh, and cry while pursuing their dreams. What they obtain is not something dazzling like a "jewel," but a chipped "marble" that has gotten mixed up somewhere. Then, one day, they receive a notice of eviction. The decision has been made to demolish their house due to the redevelopment of the city. This is the story of the modest daily lives of the three people who will eventually have to move out of that room, and the happiness that tends to get buried in this ever-changing city.
