Synopsis: (spoiler possible)
This is no ideal high school film, instead it depicts high school boys Ito and his crush on his male classmate, Yoshida. Things get even more complicated as Yoshida has a crush on a newly transfered girl student, Aihara. Aihara is not interested in Yoshida, but she forms a friendship with Ito. A rather complex friendship occurs. The narrow minded japanese society has not accepted homosexuals in that time, instead they are treated as sick people in the hospital. A dark themed yet beautiful film!
