This Is I" is the story of Ai, who dreams of becoming an idol, and the traumatized Dr. Wada. Ai, who dreams of becoming an idol, and Dr. Wada, a doctor with a broken heart, desperately go through a sometimes bright, sometimes fierce journey, depicting the irreplaceable trust and bond between them.

Kosemura, who was in charge of the musical accompaniment for this film, has written 25 songs with a modern classical sound using piano and orchestral music to accompany the solitude of the two and to encourage their hope, gently accompanying their feelings.
