Yoshizawa Miku leads a busy life as part of the variety show team at the local TV station "P-Tele". One day, her drama proposal is accepted and she's able to transfer to the drama department. Her joy was short-lived, as the department head then asked "Can we make the protagonist of this proposal a person with disabilities?" As part of the "Diversity Month" campaign launched by the network, it is said that dramas featuring characters with diverse backgrounds are needed. Despite Miku's concerns, she continues to press on with the interviews, determined to make the plan work somehow. Eventually, she meets Miyajima Haru, a wheelchair- bound high school student who aspires to be an actress. As a result of being charmed by Haru, she offers her the part, but Haru refuses, saying, "I don't want my disability to be exploited." Unable to give up, Miku visits the rehearsal studio of the theater company that Haru belongs to... (Source: Drama-Otaku) Edit Translation

Reviews
Another thing I appreciated here was the cast performance, pretty damn good, kudos to them, particularly to Ito Marika and Wago Yui who get a special mention!
The OST and the rest of the "packaging" (direction, photography, editing) were also totally OK.
On the other hand, I wasn't fully convinced by the script; I think they had good intentions but the terribly short length of the series (only 4 episodes!) meant they ended up cutting corners here and there and either left details hanging (like, what happened to the producer FL and her BF? Did they get back together?) or else failed at portraying a smooth character development (like, the director was portrayed as an A-hole until *bang*, complete U-turn in one single scene - that's sloppy writing, sorry...>___<).
Still, a solid 8/10.
