Twilight Out of Focus: Afterimages in Slow Motion

Things have always been intense between Midorigaoka Film Club's narcissistic president Jin Kikuchihara and second-year star director Giichi Ichikawa. The two club members cannot see eye-to-eye on anything related to movies or their production, which often causes bitter verbal spats in front of the other club members. Now in his final year, Kikuchihara has to decide who to give the club presidency to before he graduates, and Ichikawa is a shoo-in for the position—if only they could get along with each other. Complicating matters is when Ichikawa moves into Kikuchihara's dorm room due to unfortunate circumstances. Though Ichikawa is only there temporarily, Kikuchihara cannot shake the awkwardness of the situation entirely—especially when his temperamental club member practically has a different personality in private than he does at school. As he struggles to determine which version of his roommate is the real Ichikawa, Kikuchihara finds it harder to ignore his potential attraction to him.
