Overview

After being released from a juvenile detention center at the age of 18 due to family issues, Makoto is met by Natsumi, a school staff member he has never seen before. She asks him to become part of the organizing committee for a troubled Coming-of-Age Ceremony. At first, Makoto refuses, but upon recalling his childhood dream, he agrees; on the condition that he can make a film. Together with classmates like Kakeru, a shut-in, and Sui, a social media influencer, they dive headfirst into making a film as a group of complete amateurs. However, the lead actor suddenly goes missing... Based on a true story, this film follows their journey through the struggles and risks of standing at the threshold between youth and adulthood, as they grow while chasing their dreams.

Directed by Sato Amane
