秘密結社Ladybirdと僕の6日間
A high school student who ran from the fear of losing, and six days with adults who live in earnest
Synopsis
No spoilers
Sota, a third-year high school student, is gifted at swimming but left competition for fear of giving everything against a rival and losing. He belongs to the calligraphy club and cannot put his heart into exam preparation. One summer, he collapses from heatstroke and wakes in a place reminiscent of the bar in the film 『Ladybird』, which his father watched again and again. The people there are adults who seem to be the film's characters themselves. Over six days with them, Sota begins to look at the self he has been running from and at what kind of adult he wants to become.
