Als er sich mit Freunden in eine Bar begibt, um seine Sorgen für eine Weile zu vergessen, trifft er eine attraktive Frau, die ihm eine interessante Geschichte erzählt: Außerirdische werden in zwei Jahren das Sonnensystem übernehmen.

"Kaguya-hime" is one of the oldest Japanese tales and perhaps the world’s first science-fiction story.
