無彩色で息苦しいこの世界。救い出してくれたのは、“私を嫌い”な君でした――。 マスクが手放せず、周囲の空気ばかり読んでしまう「優等生」の茜。自由奔放で絵を描くことを愛する、銀髪のクラスメイト・青磁。何もかもが自分とは正反対の青磁のことが苦手な茜だったが、彼が描く絵と、まっすぐな性格に惹かれ、茜の世界はカラフルに色づきはじめる。次第に距離を縮めていくふたりの過去がやがて重なりあい、初めて誰にも言えなかった想いがあふれ出す――。

The documentary covers the first two years of JO1, an 11-member Japanese boy band formed from the audition television program Produce 101 Japan. The group was promised a spectacular career, but they were not confident they could make it. Selected based on votes by viewers, each member of JO1 has different experience in performing, including members who had never taken any vocal or dance lessons before. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world not long after the release of their debut single, Protostar, on March 4, 2020, and forced them to restrict their activities. Despite these difficulties, JO1 grew through daily vocal and dance lessons, promotional activities, and program recording. The film closely follows the group from the early stages of their debut to their long-awaited first live concert with an audience, titled 2021 JO1 Live "Open the Door", in November 2021.
