Synopsis by Clarke Fountain

Shin (Masahi Endo) is a teenaged gymnast who has a problem. Two problems, actually. The first problem is that he's gay and in love. The second problem is that the object of his affections is a hustler (Yoshihiko Hakamata) who barely notices him. Actually, maybe he has three problems, because he can't bring himself to tell the hustler how he feels. He has another problem as well, in the person of a young woman who wants to be his girlfriend - but then, so does the hustler. The girls have problems as well, because they can't understand why these two handsome boys aren't overjoyed to have such eager girlfriends. The situation gets really interesting when the hustler goes to dinner at his girl Yoriko's (Reiko Kataoka) house and recognizes her father as one of his regular customers.
