    • High school sophomore, Shima, is the youngest winner ever of an esteemed award for poetry. But she also longs to be an ordinary teenager. When a popular boy at school, Kento, asks her to go steady, Shima finds she has difficulty opening up to him, leading to a breakup. As she falls into a fit of despair and self-doubt, she is suddenly reunited with Kodai, a childhood friend now in college who is home for summer break. When she impulsively drags him along on a trip of emotional healing, she finds herself having to come to grips with her scattered reflections.
