Synopsis

Flexible athlete Mimimi seeks her own spotlight after being overshadowed, finding new direction through unexpected modeling opportunity.

Whether doing high jumps or blending with a crowd, Minami Nanami has always been flexible both physically and socially. But when her friend Aoi outshines her at her track-and-field specialty, Mimimi starts to wish for something more, a light to claim as her own. As she contemplates her talents, her mom asks if she'll model in a local ad for her makeup company. Faced with an unfamiliar challenge, can Mimimi find herself in this dazzling new world?
