Yuichi Hasumi (Hayato Ichihara), a second year middle school student, is bullied by his former best friend, Hoshino (Shugo Oshinari), and spends his days feeling suffocated. The only saving grace is the singing voice of the charismatic songstressLily Chou-Chou. The only time I was able to be my true self was when I was on the fan site ``Liliphilia'' that I ran...
The sound of Takeshi Kobayashi'sLily Chou-Chouand Debussy's piano music, which envelops the countryside, realistically and intensely depict the pain and frustration of 14-year-old boys and girls, as well as the innocence hidden inside.
