君の背中に見た夢は
A working mother with two children, Nitta Akane balances her job at a cosmetics company with the demands of her family. After learning about the challenges of junior high school entrance exams, she becomes involved in the process for elementary school admissions. Her husband, a TV reporter, is part of a respected couple in society, but the entrance exam world introduces them to intense competition among wealthier families. As work and family responsibilities grow, so do the pressures of education expenses and a husband who does not support her efforts. Akane's initial motivation is to provide her children with future opportunities, but the reality proves more difficult than expected. Other mothers she meets at the cram school are also struggling with their own challenges.
