[Story] The blue sky and blue sea stretch out endlessly. On this day, the Mitsuhigashi High School class match boat race was being held. Etsuko Murakami, a second-year student who was a rower, stopped rowing after she was sure she would lose. She couldn't find anything she wanted to do. She spent her boring days going back and forth between home and school. One day, a transfer student came to Etsuko's class. The transfer student, named Riina, who had been watching the class match from the beach, passionately told Etsuko, who met her for the first time, "I want to join the rowing club!" even though the rowing club had been disbanded. With the help of Etsuko and her childhood friend Hime, they revived the rowing club, and Taeko and Mayumi, who were in the same grade, also joined. Etsuko, who had only intended to lend her name, also decided to row, and the five beginners began practicing hard. After suffering a crushing defeat in the preliminary rounds, the rowing team, realizing their own level, unite in their determination to win next time. The intense and passionate daily life of the five members, including Etsuko, who were once all apart, is about to begin. The film is directed by Yuhei Sakuragi, who was the CG director for Miyazaki Hayao's Ghibli Museum short film "Caterpillar Boro," and who has been attracting attention for his work "Even if the World Ends Tomorrow," which was nominated for the Annecy International Animated Film Festival competition. Keiichiro Ochi, who worked on "The Quintessential Quintuplets," is also involved in the scriptwriting. Nishida Asako, who worked on "Love Live!", is in charge of character design, and the film depicts a refreshing and delicate story.
