The movie starts of kind of slow as we are introduced to the life of Michiru, but things certainly become interesting when the doorbell rings and nobody answers her. Unknown to Michiru, Akihiro sneaks into her house and hides out. This is a sweet tale of a blind girl who hides from the world and a boy who hides in order to avoid the police, but also to find out what really happened.
