366 days aren't enough to love you

It’s 2003, and a love story spanning decades has just begun. Bubbly highschooler Miu and quiet senior student Minato dream of a life beyond their sleepy Okinawan town, and when a MiniDisc jumble brings them together, the pair bond over their shared love of music. As they exchange songs romantic sparks fly, and the two start envisioning a life in Tokyo—to the quiet disappointment of Miu’s loyal best friend, Ryūsei. But when Miu follows Minato to Tokyo after graduation, she is soon met by the harsh realities of city life. Being a small fish in the big pond brings its challenges, and unexpected circumstances spur Miu and Minato’s lives in different directions. Fast forward to the present, and Miu’s daughter is left to piece together the untold stories of her mother’s past. 

Inspired by 366 Nichi, the hit song by Okinawan band HY, this emotionally charged story is one that celebrates the strength of love in all its forms—romantic, familial and platonic. No stranger to the genre, director Takehiko Shinjō’s (And Yet, You Are So Sweet) latest coming-of-age romance is one that many can relate to, with its themes of growth, ambition and having the courage to follow your dreams.
