About The Stranger by the Beach

Adapted from Kanna Kii’s Umibe no Étranger manga, the anime film speaks of love between boys.

Shun is an aspiring novelist who resides at a house near a remote beach in Okinawa. His family has shunned him due to his sexual preference. Shun meets Mio, a high-school boy who has been orphaned at an early age.

Both the boys grow closer to each other at the beach, but soon, Mio has to leave for his studies, but he asks Shun to wait for his return.

Three years pass by, and Mio returns as promised. Will both of them get to be together again?
