My Rainy Days

In a rain‑kissed city where the neon glow never quite reaches the shadows, a seventeen‑year‑old high school senior moves through life with a restless energy that both draws people in and keeps them at arm’s length. Rio carries the weight of a painful past, and the emptiness inside her drives her toward the allure of wealth and material comforts, a glittering promise of control in a world that has often felt out of reach. The tone of the story is a moody, introspective blend of youthful desperation and the quiet yearning for something steadier than fleeting riches.

Rio is charismatic and sharp‑witted, navigating her school’s social currents with a mix of confidence and hidden vulnerability. Surrounded by a tight‑knit circle of friends, she often masks her insecurities behind a façade of ambition, using clever tactics to secure the resources she believes will fill the void left by earlier wounds. The atmosphere vibrates with the tension between outward success and inner doubt, setting the stage for a personal reckoning that feels both intimate and universal.

A seemingly ordinary mix‑up at a small photo shop brings her face‑to‑face with an unexpected counterpart: a quiet, thoughtful academic who has spent years immersed in history and the quiet corridors of a university. Kouki, a thirty‑something professor, carries his own quiet burdens, his reserved demeanor hinting at depths that extend far beyond his scholarly pursuits. Their initial encounter is accidental, yet the undercurrent of curiosity and unspoken longing is immediate, hinting at a connection that could upend the carefully constructed walls each has built.

As their paths continue to cross, a tentative romance begins to blossom, pulling Rio into a realm where genuine affection challenges the currency she has long pursued. The film’s tone shifts gently from the slick sheen of material ambition to a softer, rain‑drenched reflection on what truly matters. In this delicate dance of two very different lives, each character is forced to confront the fragile hopes they hide beneath their surfaces, promising a journey of self‑discovery that lingers long after the final drop falls.
