  失意漫畫家助川助三(竹中直人飾),終日百無聊賴,只幹幹小生意,多次失敗後,他想到在河邊拾石頭來賣。兒子三助陪伴爸爸看店,妻子(風吹純飾)惟有派傳單維持生計。一日,助川看到「愛石狂會」舉辦拍賣會,遂帶同妻兒展開採石之旅,期望在拍賣會上一鳴驚人…誰知賣石不成,助川再執漫畫之筆。惜俗世不容我理想,助川最後只好回河邊……
  改編自著名漫畫家津下義春的同名作品,竹中直人首回導演作已技驚四座。

  Sukezo Sukegawa was once a well-known comic strip writer, has a wife and a son, but he fell behind the times and failed. He builds a hut besides the Tama River and undertaken to sell assorted stones and rocks he picked up from the river.
  Unfortunately, no one seems all that interested in his wares. Along the way, he meets a fellow rock dealer who is very weird, and his wife, who is even weird. The former tells him of an auction where he might just sell something while the latter tries to seduce him. Later he meets an enigmatic bird salesman, who tell him about another way to earn money. Meanwhile, his long-suffering wife struggles between loving her husband and hating his insane pursuit.
  This film is based on a cult manga by Yoshiharu Tsuge and it won the 1991 Fipresci prize at the 1991 Venice Film Festival.
