Based on an award-winning novel by Amy Yamada (Trash, Bedroom Eyes, Animal Logic) comes SUGAR & SPICE, a coming-of-age story of Shiro (Yuya Yagira).

At 17 and fresh from high school graduation, Shiro finds himself standing in that ambivalent “no man's land” between adolescence and adulthood. He shirks off college, much to the dismay of his conventional parents and takes a job at a gas station for no other reason than a vague ambition to do something with cars.

Shiro witnesses a public breakup between a man and a college girl, Noriko (Erika Sawajiri). Days later, he is surprised to see the same girl arrive at the gas station as the newly-hired help, and even more alarmed at his loss of composure in front of her. He is love-struck, and his bittersweet initiation into adult life begins.
