You can’t buy a ticket for the Elsewhere Express. Appearing only to those whose lives are adrift, it’s a magical train carrying very rare and special cargo: a sense of purpose, peace, and belonging. Raya is one of those lost souls. She dreamed of being a songwriter, but when her brother died, she gave up on her dream and started living his instead.

In den Gassen von Tokio, hinter der Tür eines unauffälligen Ramen-Restaurants, verbirgt sich ein besonderes Geschäft: Hier können unverwirklichte Träume gegen Seelenfrieden und exquisiten grünen Tee eingetauscht werden. Doch an dem Tag, an dem Hana den Laden von ihrem Vater Toshio übernehmen soll, ist dieser plötzlich verschwunden und der Tresor geplündert. Ein junger Wissenschaftler bietet Hana an, mit ihr nach Toshio zu suchen.

Most will see only a cosy ramen restaurant. And just the chosen ones – those who are lost – will find a place to pawn their life choices and deepest regrets. Hana Ishikawa wakes on her first morning as the pawnshop's new owner to find it ransacked, the shop’s most precious acquisition stolen and her father missing. And then into the shop stumbles a charming stranger, quite unlike other customers. For he offers help, instead of seeking it.
