Synopsis
Spoiler shield
The film depicts the strange live-in lifestyle of three people: Yasuko, a 14-year-old girl who insists that all things are equal and sex is no exception, Boku, a university student, and Ryosuke, a photographer for Binimoto. M, a girl who was popular for her photo books and videos at the time, plays the role of the girl who lives a carefree life, and is flanked by other celebrities.
