The movie stars Rui Pour, a former model turned actress, as one of the members of the group. The story follows the five members of the idol group Momoiro Clover, who are struggling to gain any popularity in the world of idols. They are constantly being overshadowed by other famous idol groups and are on the verge of being disbanded. However, their manager comes up with a plan to save their career: they must try to become famous by any means necessary, even if it means staging their own deaths.
