The narrative centers around interwoven relationships – friendships, familial bonds, and burgeoning romantic feelings – experienced by a group of young people navigating adolescence. The animation style emphasizes realistic character portrayals and nuanced emotional expression.

It offers a contemplative look at the challenges of self-discovery, belonging, and finding one’s place within a community, resonating with themes of empathy and gentle personal growth. The overall atmosphere is warm and introspective, prioritizing emotional resonance over high-octane action.
