is Oki's first 35-mm film for commercial release, and it works up his usual aesthetic/formal/cruising strategies into a low-key slice-of-life drama. Shot in the town of Kochi (where Oki currently lives), it centres on the shifting social and sexual relations between three boys. Yu provokes a crisis in his otherwise secure relationship with Shin by approaching the straight boy Taka and telling him that he likes him very much. Shin takes this news badly, gets little consolation from his other friends and ends up provoking a scene with Taka... (Tony Rayns, Vancouver Festival Catalogue)
