==Plot== Mifuse is a steel mill town in rural Japan. In January 1991, a catastrophic explosion at the mill isolates the town from the outside world, trapping it in an eternal winter. Mamoru Sagami, a mill worker and head priest, declares the disaster divine punishment for mining a sacred mountain. He convinces the townspeople to maintain their pre-disaster identities, submitting periodic ID forms, as he claims they are bound to a "sacred machine." Meanwhile, fissures occasionally open in the sky, only to be sealed by the mill's smoke.
