STORY
It’s summer vacation and second-year high school students Kokoro and Miku are instructed by their P.E. teacher, Yamamoto, to clean the pool as a penalty for missing a class.
The empty pool is covered with sand that has blown in from the nearby baseball field.
While they reluctantly sweep the sand, Chizuru, a classmate and member of the swim team and Yui, a third-year ex-swim team member, join in to help.
They chat randomly about school, love and make-up, but gradually their anxieties and worries begin to spill over with intersecting emotions.
A coming-of-age ensemble that begins at the bottom of a swimming pool…
