About
Kaoru has moved so many times he's stopped bothering to make friends. His latest transfer drops him in a seaside town in the jazz-loving sixties, where the school delinquent everyone avoids — Sentaro — turns out to be a drummer with more warmth than menace. Kaoru's classical piano training collides with Sentaro's raw swing, and in the basement of a record shop run by the family of their classmate Ritsuko, the two start playing together. Sessions become friendship, friendship tangles into love triangles, and the music keeps pulling them back to each other even when everything else falls apart.
