[ Story ]

An original story depicting the human drama between children. Director O Mipo and screenwriter Takada Ryo have teamed up once again, following their collaborations on The Light Shines Only There and Being Good.
Yuishi (Shimada Tetta), a fourth-grader, is interested in his classmate Kokoa (Ruri), who is highly conscious of environmental issues and does not hesitate to speak out against adults. He tries to get close to her, but she seems drawn to the class troublemaker, Haruto (Mimoto Yota). The environmental activities these three begin take an unexpected turn.
