The Colors Within is directed by the acclaimed filmmaker Naoko Yamada (A Silent Voice, Liz and the Blue Bird, The Heike Story), with production from studio Science SARU (Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, Inu-Oh).

Synopsis: Totsuko has a unique way of seeing the world – she can see colorful auras around people, though she isn’t able to see her own. She finds herself drawn to her classmate Kimi, who glows with the most beautiful color of all. To get closer to Kimi, Totsuko forms a band with her and Rui, a quiet musician who plays the theremin. As the newfound friends develop the sound of their music, they start to uncover the desires driving the heart of their songs.
