A Piece of Our Life – Kakera
(Kakera)
by Momoko ANDO

College student Haru is stuck in an unsatisfying relationship. When she meets Riko they become very close friends. Soon Haru realizes that Riko is expecting more from her than she is willing to give. KAKERA is a nuanced portrait of love,  friendship, identity and gender, illuminating the intensity and confusion of the journey toward maturity.
