Having just graduated from art school, three young people discover that their paths are no longer the same, and they must reconcile their new lives with their former relationships. Mako has given up her idealism to join a company, and falls in love with Akira's boyfriend. Meanwhile, Akira decides to end her own romantic involvement to pursue her dreams. This is a new twist on a love-triangle from the perspective of three twenty-somethings facing an unknown future.
