cultural property of the country, and Mr. Shinbo Motohira, who is known as a lone swordsmith in Sado.

A documentary about the lives of two people who have continued to be responsible for Japanese culture. Also, the stage for the drama part where the four young people are active is Niigata. A girl who was chasing her dream of becoming a dancer lost her dream due to an accident in the middle of the road… Various people, dreams and thoughts resonate, and a new story begins to unfold. The director is Noto Tsuyoshi, who founded Niigata Soodori. An all-Niigata location filled with the appeal of Niigata’s people, culture, and climate.
