Asako is a girl who firmly believes that “she can’t live without being exceptionally pretty.”
It all began during one fateful English class in junior high when she stumbled upon words that would forever change her life.
Those profound words belonged to Brillat-Savarin, the renowned French gourmet:
"You are what you eat."
Fast forward three years, and just as Asako has dedicated herself entirely to the pursuit of beauty, a captivating and mesmerizing girl transfers into her class.
What fate awaits Asako and her new friend, "Angel"?

Ryo Sena

Ryo Sena is a 19-year-old student at Aoyama Gakuin University, Faculty of Business Administration in Tokyo. After completing high school, she momentarily set aside her creative aspirations to focus on her studies. However, her path took an unexpected turn when her debut film, "Hajimete no Yoasobi," clinched the grand prize at the "Hulu U-35 Creators’ Challenge" in 2022. As part of her prize, she is currently in the process of producing a full-length feature film.
This film tells the story of a high school girl who adores all things cute and pretty and passionately desires to become even prettier.
Inspired by her experiences overcoming the fear of being perceived as unattractive, the film's essence lies in shedding light on issues surrounding lookism and evoking empathy for the universal longing to be considered pretty.
