What should I do? This is a major crisis.
A musical comedy filled with laughter and tears, sure to light a fire in your heart.

Iizuka (Kobayashi Kaoru), an indecisive civil servant working at the cultural center in Mitama Town, a provincial city, is a do-nothing type of person. A major incident strikes him on the morning of December 30th, when a phone call reveals a double booking for New Year's Eve. He's confused the similar-sounding groups "Mitama Ladies Chorus" and "Mitama Town Chorus Girls," and left the situation unresolved for six months. Naturally, the two chorus groups, both looking forward to the New Year's Eve concert, refuse to budge. Even Iizuka, as expected of irresponsible people, begins to panic and runs around trying to resolve the issue somehow...
This is a film adaptation of a masterpiece new rakugo story by popular rakugo artist Tatekawa Shinosuke.
