Umibe no Onna no Ko
Original Music Composer
Sato e Isobe son dos adolescentes que viven sus días de colegiales en un tranquilo pueblo costero. Ambos deciden embarcarse en una relación puramente física, pero pronto se darán cuenta que dejar de lado los sentimientos resulta muy complicado. Paseando por la orilla de un mar lleno de misterios, ambos aprenderán que las cosas de dos, pueden traer graves consecuencias para terceros.
Starry Starry Night
Original Music Composer
There was once a young girl named May who felt alienated from everyone around her. May is worried about her mother and father, whose marriage is on the rocks, and she yearns to return to the woods where her grandfather lives. One day, May befriends a boy as lonely as she is. When reality catches up, they run away to a beautiful world that belongs only to them. Both imaginatively escapist and heartbreakingly realistic, their journey speaks to kids and adults alike with the pain of solitude, the sorrow of loss, and the warmth of hope.

Una muñeca hinchable de tamaño natural vive en un modesto piso de Tokio. Es la única compañía de su solitario amo, un hombre de mediana edad.

Acaba de nacer y no entiende lo que ocurre a su alrededor, aunque se da cuenta de que existe otro mundo más allá de las paredes del piso. Cuando, por fin, se atreve a salir al mundo exterior, se siente fascinada por todo lo que ve. Conoce a mucha gente, pero nadie es capaz de explicarle qué significa "estar viva". Un día, entra en un videoclub y conoce a Junichi, el vendedor, del que se enamora inmediatamente...
