The confusion a teenage boy feels about growing up and falling in love.

​

[Synopsis]

Kiita, a 14-year-old boy, was raised by his blind mother, Hanae, who runs a music school on a small island, and grew up surrounded by music. Kiita, who possesses a beautiful singing voice, enters adolescence and begins to feel confused by the changes within himself. He also harbors special feelings for his best friend, Daiya. His mother only speaks of his father—with whom he no longer lives—in a joking manner, but Kiita longs to know the truth. As if to escape his anxiety, Kiita leaves home without telling anyone. He is determined to meet the father who abandoned him when he was a child.
