120 B.C.: Roman architect Lucius Modestus is struggling with designing public bathhouses that can keep up with the trends of his time. While visiting the baths in order to find inspiration, he gets sucked into the drain – and finds himself in modern day Japan. The ideas he adapts from Japanese bathing culture might even help the Romans win a war.
