CGiii Comment

Not a bad little film.

It's just that...the presumption that everyone is gay is becoming somewhat exhausted. And, when they are straight, don't take it so - idiotically - personal.


Watch...

The(ir) Blurb...

After being rejected by her favorite customer, a cashier must reconcile her feelings when the customer continues to visit the ramen shop.
