Nagano Chiaki
Yōko Ono
A group of youths try to create works they think suitable for filling up the "hollowness" of life. For example, by hiring an orchestra and having its members count the stars in the sky from dusk to dawn, they create a new kind of music. Ms. Yoko Ono, the leader of the group, who calls herself a one-time musician, poet, and painter, explains the motives of their eccentric conduct.
