Just friends

A sweet, delicate journey through the bittersweet nostalgia of first love that cherishes the memories of who we once were

It’s been over ten years since the summer camp where the shy Erika and the outgoing Emi first met. Erika wasn’t thrilled about her mother’s decision to send her away for a week with a bunch of other teenagers. Nevertheless, this feeling changed when a spirited girl with long curly hair sat beside her on the bus, opening the door to a heartfelt friendship. Through excursions, beach days, and starry nights, they shared secrets, confidences, and their first kisses, falling head over heels in love. 

Despite the passage of time, the miles between them, and the changes in their lives, they try to see each other whenever they can, nostalgically reminiscing about the summer that left such a lasting mark on their hearts. Even though the carefree days of sun and sea are behind them, neither is ready to fully let go of the magical memories they made at that camp.

Just Friends is the tender story of two girls who met at a specific time and place, and how, ever since, they have tried with all their hearts to recapture the magic of who they once were and the sweet charm of first love.
