Masashi Asada is the gifted but irresponsible youngest son in a family, and a photographer. His work initially revolves around taking staged photos of his family, depicting an ideal world where they do their dream jobs. Asada publishes his book, which has mediocre sales, and turns to his childhood crush for support. As his book starts to take off, he starts getting requests from average families for him to take photos of them.[1] When the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake happens, he volunteers to help cleaning and sorting out photographs from the family's victims.[2] As part of this, he does some soul searching and realises the value of family.[3][4] The main character is based on the real-life photographer, Masashi Asada.[1]
Filming took place in 2020, and it was distributed by Bridgehard in Europe and Toho Studios in the rest of the world.[5]
