## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Nabbie’s Love sets out to reunite Nanako with the grandmother she barely knows, and the literal boat that carries her also carries a ghost from Nabbie’s past. Nanako intends to mend family fences only to find the reunion already booked. A quietly sentimental coastal farce that forgets to be as sharp as it wants to be.

**Mood tags**: foreign-gem, bittersweet, cozy, tender
