Formerly the reserved little sprout X the domineering star of the team, later the fencing champion X the documentary director.
Childhood sweethearts, pure love, and a rekindled romance.
A touch of ensemble cast, with everyone getting a bad ending.
-
A boy who has lived facing death finds a reason to keep going;
a boy who longs to see the world beyond stays forever where he started;
a boy who yearns to be loved loses the person he loves most forever;
a boy who sets out on a path to fame looks back and finds no one there.
-
To each other, they were like a fine, gentle drizzle in a sweltering little town during a hopeless season of youth.
