Plot

In the complex universe of junior high, Miyo Sasaki, an eccentric second-year student, nurses a deep-seated affection for her classmate, the aloof Kento Hinode. Despite her relentless efforts, her love remains unnoticed, lost in the chaotic rhythm of adolescence. However, Miyo, known as Muge to her peers, harbors a secret - a mystical mask with the power to transform her into a cat. This enchanting artifact becomes her ticket to Kento's world, allowing her to slip into his life in a way her human form never could. But this magical transformation isn't without its peril. As she navigates the blurred lines between the human world and the feline realm, the possibility of permanently losing her humanity looms ominously over her. The more Muge utilizes the mask, the more ambiguous the boundary between herself and the cat becomes. Yet, driven by her unyielding love for Kento, she dares to tread this treacherous path. A Whisker Away is a mesmerizing journey of love and self-discovery, a tale of a young girl chasing after her heart's desire, even as she teeters on the brink of losing herself. The film invites you to ponder the price of love and the lengths one might go to capture the attention of the beloved.
