Synopsis
Daytime Shooting Star (ひるなかの流星, 2017) is a Japanese romantic drama you can watch online on iFILM. Director Takehiko Shinjō adapted Mika Yamamori's popular manga, with Mei Nagano, Shohei Miura, and Aran Shirahama in the lead roles.
Suzume Yosano, fifteen and newly arrived from the countryside, moves in with her uncle in Tokyo. She gets lost on day one and a stranger helps her find the address — the same stranger who turns up the next morning as her homeroom teacher. Her classmate Mamura clocks the awkward dynamic immediately, and a quiet triangle forms that neither side has words for yet.
Shinjō keeps Yamamori's visual rhythm: lingering close-ups, pauses that carry more weight than the dialogue, a story that sits with its uncomfortable edges rather than resolving them neatly. Watch Daytime Shooting Star (2017) online on iFILM.
