Two people who feel everything for each other but can't close a gap that's only ten centimeters wide. The show understands that proximity and connection are not the same thing, and it builds something devastating out of that single idea. By episode three you stop waiting for them to kiss and start watching them fail to, over and over, because the real distance was never physical. Six episodes is all it takes to make you feel the weight of restraint, the specific loneliness of being wanted but not reached.
Miou and Haruki meet on the first day of high school and immediately recognize something in each other that neither can quite name. What starts as walks home becomes a daily routine. Now in their third and final year, the reserved art club member and the outgoing, award-winning ace of the movie club are so close that others take them for a couple, yet they have never become more than friends. Haruki pursues his dream of directing films while Miou struggles to choose a path of her own. With one year left, they must face their hidden feelings and their futures, and discover how hard it is to cross the last 10 centimeters between them. The six-episode series blends romance, drama and slice of life.
