[ Story ]

Teenage film produced with scholarship funding from the 24th PFF Scholarship. Up-and-coming Oda Manabu scripts and directs this lighthearted romance about two high school boys.
High school senior Saimon (Sakamoto Itsuki) is headed for college, and his buddy Tada Takashi (Suga Kenta) will take over his family's factory. Takashi is fed up with being surrounded by guys and heads off with Saimon on a journey to find the love of his life. Takashi goes all out with guitar in hand, whereas Saimon harbors feelings that he can't express. They each have their own motivations for a trip that heads toward an unexpected conclusion.
