“Don’t you cross this line! You can’t play with us here!”
“Please, let’s just play together. But, who drew this line anyway?“

A line popped out in front of us out of nowhere! Where does this line begin?

“Let’s find out ourselves whether we can erase this!”

The boy begins to follow the line pulling it bit by bit.

 

With the line in between, two friends turn their backs to each other, Trapped within the line, a kid gives up hanging out with friends.

A world without warmth, and heartless people.

 

Countless lines exist in this world... Maybe, it is all because of this line drawn below our feet.

What is this line for? is a story about the lines that divide and separate people.

Whether we are locking up ourselves within a line, or whether we truly need such a thing... How about following the lines with the boy and see for ourselves?
