Look Back

"Look Back is the adaptation of the popular manga of the same name by Tatsuki Fujimoto, better known as the creator of Chainsaw Man. The film, brief and moving, tells the story of two girls: Fujino, popular and talented at creating comedy manga; and Kyōmoto, shy, agoraphobic, but gifted at drawing landscapes. When they meet, a beautiful friendship and a fertile collaboration emerge, which, however, is destined for tragedy. Fans of Fujimoto's original work will be more than satisfied with this adaptation: as if the original manga were a storyboard, the film brings it to life through vibrant colors and movement in an animation that only enhances the emotions that the narrative holds. A simple yet powerful story about art, life, death, and their eternal, inevitable, and symbiotic relationship."
