30. A Fresh Start on a Small Island

Watakano Island in central Japan was once an entertainment hub, but its economy has declined in recent years. The local government sends 31-year-old Toge Hiroyuki there to revive the community. After a setback in the big city, Hiroyuki plans to make a fresh start on this small island. Islander Hayashi Kazuhiro anxiously watches over him in his role as adviser. Summer sees the return of the island's traditional festival after a three-year hiatus. We follow this young man and the islanders as they try to get their lives back on track.
