Hidarikiki no Eren (2019)

Synopsis
A live-action adaptation of the buzzing comic series set in an advertising agency – a creator drama that cuts deep into the heart.
Asakura Koichi, while struggling with the limits of his own talent, dreams of becoming “someone.” Meanwhile, Yamagishi Eren, blessed with overwhelming artistic talent, carries the anguish and loneliness that comes with being a genius. After a fateful meeting in high school, they walk different paths – one as a designer at a major advertising agency, the other as an artist based in NY.
Through the defeats and setbacks of these contrasting characters – the ordinary talent and the genius – this youth ensemble drama realistically portrays their journey to discovering their true selves.
The tagline reads: “To all those who couldn’t become geniuses.” Set in our ruthless modern society, this fresh youth and human drama depicts young people earnestly struggling between the universal complex of “maybe I’m not a genius” and their pride that still wants to believe in themselves.
