Synopsis
Plastic: Promised to a record deal that didn’t work out, teenage Jun (Takuma Fujie, August My Heaven) arrives in Nagoya as a transfer student with dashed dreams. One day, his busking of songs by Exne Kedy catches the eye of fellow fan Ibuki (An Ogawa, Heaven Is Still Far Away) and the pair soon falls in love over their shared musical taste. But as adult responsibilities loom, prospects in Tokyo beckon and a global pandemic hits, they slowly drift apart… Until the legendary Exne Kedy announce a reunion tour.
Yamato (California): Sakura (Hanae Kan, Nobody Knows), a moody teenager, lives in Yamato, Japan. A small town one hour away from Tokyo, it is unremarkable in every way except for the massive US military base that remains at its center. This closeness to American culture has also shaped Sakura’s consciousness: she dreams of becoming a rapper, like the American musicians she admires. Already feeling like an outsider in her own home, her routine is further disturbed when a young Japanese-American girl, Rei (Nina Endo, Tourism), visits from the States. The daughter of an absent G.I. that her mother is dating, Rei has friendship to spare... which Sakura initially resists.
