Synopsis.
In the spring of 1990, a 16-year-old girl, Elisa, transferred from Tokyo to a high school in Fujimi-cho, Nagano, for family reasons.
While living with her grandmother, Akiko, she comes to know about her late English grandfather's 1937 British motorcycle, a Norton 500, which is no longer running. Elisa was attracted by the Norton's aura, and with the help of her friend Aiko, who belonged to the school's old car club, she began restoration work. By chance, Elisa's Norton is entered in a national competition for restored motorcycles.
Life in an unfamiliar place. Encounters, friendship, conflict, and love.
A coming-of-age story about a girl who grows up through restoring motorcycles!
