Set in a near-future Tokyo where the threat of a catastrophic earthquake pervades daily life, two rabble-rousing best friends are about to graduate high school.
One night, they pull a prank on their principal, which leads to a surveillance system being installed in their school.
Stuck between the oppressive security system and a darkening national political situation, the two respond in contrasting ways, leading them to confront differences they never had to face before.
"set in the future but fully plugged into the present" The Hollywood Reporter
"a poetic portrait of youth" Indiewire
