Feelings are hard to deal with. The students of Association know this to be true the most as they're always dealing with the fact that they can't have feelings when their education is always the priority. With only a handful of students allowed every year, they are in constant competition with others and themselves. But perhaps above anything else, it's their own emotions they've never won against.
In a retelling of the same high school scenery, three students, all dealing with their own sets of problems and emotions, try to make sense of who they are, what they feel, and what to do when they're not sure of anything anymore.
