To Aru Kekkon

Twelve years after beginning her relationship with Anna, an international student she met in Japan, Saki has finally made the journey across the Pacific to Los Angeles so they can share a life together. Their long-awaited reunion is set against the backdrop of a changing world, where shifting cultural tides are beginning to reshape what is possible for them as a couple. One morning, while a television broadcast discusses the ongoing movement to legalize same-sex marriage in California, Anna unexpectedly turns to Saki and asks her hand in marriage. The sudden proposal shatters the quiet routine of their new life together, forcing a conversation neither had fully prepared to have. For Saki, the question arrives at a deeply uncertain moment. Having spent years simply existing in the present without giving much thought to what lies ahead, she finds herself entirely unprepared to map out a shared future. Caught off guard by the weight of Anna's request and her own lack of direction, Saki is left struggling to find an answer, unsure if she is ready to take such a monumental step forward.
