Film enthusiast Mao Tsuchiya and his lone wolf roommate Hisashi Otomo make three promises:

① That Mao will never tell anyone that Hisashi is gay and has a boyfriend, 
② That Hisashi will never approach Mao “in that way,” and
③ That they’ll respect each other’s “private time.”

The second-years’ ground rules should ensure a peaceful life together in their dorm, but reality is never as simple as it seems in the movies, and some things are not so easily promised...

18+
"Jyanome skilfully captures the heady highs and lows of first love in Twilight Out of Focus as well as the genuine excitement generated when a group of like-minded young people work together on creating a film. The two threads mesh seamlessly together, delivering a story that repays several readings – all brought to life by the mangaka’s sensuous, striking art. 9/10" - Anime UK News
