Hanoko is suicidal, Yuka has caught her boyfriend with another woman, Michiru is aimless, Mr. Wakabayashi has just been fired, and one other man just lost his wife. They take the train to Kazumachi, a small village. They decide to stay and enter a small world of discovery about themselves, courtesy of the inhabitants of the village, all of whom are engaging.
Directed by Masaki Harada, Departing Osaka Station at 0:00 leans on a strong ensemble — Atsuko Sakurai, Hanako Takigawa, Tokunaga Hideaki — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
