The film is about two teenage girls, Kayako Kirishima and Masami Endō, who find their friendship turning into something more.
Kayako Kirishima, in her third year at a high school, feels a sense of isolation in school life and vague admiration and uneasiness about the future. One day she makes friends with Endō, who is isolated from her surroundings because she remained in the same class for another year. Kayako is strongly attracted by Endō, who shows her a world that she didn't know.
Variety called the film impressive but overlong.[1]
