Our take
Roommates in a boys' school film club make a BL movie under three rules meant to stop them falling for each other. Later volumes follow other couples in the same club.
Synopsis
Mao promises never to out his roommate Hisashi, Hisashi promises never to make a move on Mao, and both agree to respect each other's privacy. Then the film club casts Hisashi in a BL movie with Mao behind the camera. Later volumes follow other couples in the club.
