Look Back

A popular schoolgirl comic artist finds her confidence shaken when a reclusive classmate's stunning drawings join her newspaper strip, turning envy into an unexpected creative bond.

This Japanese drama follows Fujino, whose funny comics make her the star of her class newspaper, until her teacher pairs her with Kyomoto, a truant whose artwork ignites a fierce rivalry. As jealousy gives way to a shared love of drawing, the two forge a connection that reshapes them both. Directed by Hirokazu Kore-eda, the film features Natsuki Deguchi and Aju Makita among its cast.
