Plot

One Christmas Eve, three homeless people—middle-aged alcoholic Gin, transgender woman Hana, and teenage runaway Miyuki—discover an abandoned newborn while searching through the garbage for presents, along with a note asking whoever finds the baby to take good care of her and a key leading to a bag with clues to the parents' identity. The trio sets out to find the baby's parents, and Hana names her Kiyoko, based on the Japanese translation of "Silent Night" and literally meaning "pure child".
