Refrain
リフレイン
A group of individuals navigate personal and emotional struggles in a series of interconnected stories. Each entry explores different characters and moments, focusing on themes of loneliness, memory, and fleeting connections. One follows a man reflecting on past relationships, another a woman dealing with the quiet emptiness of her daily life. A school setting features students and teachers caught in subtle, unspoken tensions. A summer story centers on a boy experiencing the slow, heavy days of adolescence. The narratives are introspective, with minimal action, emphasizing internal states and the passage of time.
