The love of drawing manga brings two very different girls together in this striking anime film. Student shorts precede this feature.

Popular, outgoing Fujino is celebrated by her classmates for her funny comics in the class newspaper. One day, her teacher asks her to share the space with Kyomoto, a truant recluse whose beautiful artwork sparks a competitive fervor in Fujino. What starts as jealousy transforms when Fujino realizes their shared passion for drawing.

Based on the acclaimed manga by Tatsuki Fujimoto, the creator of "Chainsaw Man," this striking anime film captures the highs and lows of pursuing artistic excellence and the special bonds formed through creative collaboration. Kiyotaka Oshiyama's feature debut offers a touching story of friendship and creativity that will inspire you to chase your own artistic dreams.

Preceding the film will be a selection of short films made by Dartmouth students in the AAPI community
