Synopsis
Astronaut Jess, exiled to a penal planet, learns life's truths from an old woman while battling Earth's dictator.
This is a story of an astronaut who is sent to a penal colony planet, and there meets an old woman who shows him the truth of life and love.

The story focuses on him, using Japanese Noh drama "Kurozuka" as a motif. (Source: AniDB)
