The life of pupil Dai Miyamoto revolves around basketball, part-time jobs, and an unknown future. After he finished school, a friend takes him to a Jazz concert. There he discovers his passion for jazz music and teaches himself how to play the tenor saxophone. He continues to improve and takes it upon himself to become the best Saxophonist in the world. What is necessary, to become the best? Is it talent, profound passion for music, or mainly discipline and hard work, that aids success? The film is based on the manga of the same name, written by Shinichi Ishizuka.
