# Where to Watch Look Back

**Look Back tells its complete story in a single 58-minute movie, so there is no season commitment or setup to clear first. Amazon Prime Video is the sole service named on this page. This 2024 drama from studio durian follows two young manga creators whose shared work draws them together, even as talent, jealousy, and changing ambitions complicate that bond.

Amazon Prime Video carries the movie. Set aside one uninterrupted hour if you can, since the 58-minute story is designed as a single, concentrated viewing rather than episodic chapters.

## Synopsis

A schoolgirl takes pride in drawing comics for her class publication until another student's work unsettles her confidence. The other artist rarely leaves home, yet her skill is impossible to ignore. What begins as envy gradually becomes a creative partnership, with the pair making manga and pushing each other forward. Their closeness is tied to the work itself, which gives every success, separation, and change in direction added weight. The film stays focused on their relationship and the private reasons people keep creating, while leaving its later emotional turns unspoiled.
