Sisters

Mitsuko is a third-year student at an art high school, where creativity and competition are woven into the fabric of daily life. The institution regularly holds prestigious painting contests, and the winning pieces are proudly displayed in the hallways for an entire year as a testament to the students' exceptional talent. For Mitsuko, navigating her final year means being constantly surrounded by the ambitious works of her peers, but nothing could have prepared her for a deeply unsettling discovery waiting for her in the corridor. While walking through the school, Mitsuko stumbles upon the latest competition-winning masterpiece chosen for the annual exhibition. To her absolute shock, the celebrated artwork is a nude portrait of herself, rendered with striking detail. Even more bewildering is the identity of the artist: the painting was created by her own younger sister. The revelation plunges Mitsuko into a profound dilemma, as she has never once posed for her sibling. This one-shot explores the complex and uncomfortable dynamics between sisters when artistic ambition crosses deeply personal boundaries, forcing Mitsuko to confront the implications of being immortalized in such an intimate and unauthorized manner.
