Description:

Setoutsumi is a compelling slice-of-life movie that revolves around the unusual friendship between two high school boys. So Utsumi is a quiet student who does not have many friends. To kill time after school and before heading to his private institute, he sits by the riverside doing nothing. His solitary routine is disrupted when Shokichi Seto suddenly appears. Having recently quit the soccer team, Shokichi also finds himself with nothing to do. The two boys start spending their afternoons together on the riverside, sharing unique conversations. Their daily encounters take a new turn when Ichigo Kashimura and Hatsumi, two girls from the same high school, appear in front of them. This heartwarming story beautifully captures the essence of youth, connection, and the meaningful moments found in doing absolutely nothing.
