Yokohama, 1963. Japan is picking itself up from the devastation of World War II and preparing to host the 1964 Olympics-and the mood is one of both optimism and conflict as the young generation struggles to throw off the shackles of a troubled past. Against this backdrop of hope and change, a friendship begins to blossom between high school students Umi and Shun-but a buried secret from their past emerges to cast a shadow on the future and pull them apart.
