## Synopsis
One day, an 'annoying video' posted on SNS spreads. Rumors begin to spread that it is Misaki, a high school student, based on the uniforms and belongings captured in the corners of the video. Her mother, Ayaka, wants to believe that 'her daughter would never do such a thing,' but her anxiety grows as she notices the characteristics reflected in the video and Misaki's vague replies. She wants to know the truth, but does not want to doubt her daughter. As she is driven into a corner by the irresponsible words of the public, an invisible rift begins to form between parent and child. This is a story about how an SNS 'controversy' quietly shakes the daily life of a family.

## Cast Comments
- Ayaka Kinoshita (played by Akiko Hinagata): ' 'Enjo' (Controversy) feels like a word I'm used to hearing these days. When did it become like this? In such an era, a parent and child are pushed around and struck down by a controversy. It was a time to reflect on what was right and what could have been done better. I would be happy if you could accompany us until the end, along with a mother who wants to know the truth.'
- Misaki Kinoshita (played by Saaya Minase): 'This is a story that takes up 'controversy,' something that could happen to anyone in this era where SNS is an everyday part of our daily lives. Misaki is a high school girl who has a strong core but also sensitivity in her heart. I would be happy if you could pay attention to what Misaki thinks, what actions she takes, and the bond between Misaki and her mother who cares about her.'
