The violent confrontations in the fields of Sanrizuka resulted in many victims and ultimately in the suicide of a young activist, which left deep scars on those who still lived among the fields. Farmers were constantly arrested and prevented from working during the harvest season. In this film, Ogawa Productions documents how the remaining members of the village community seek together comfort and perseverance.
