When Misaki's hometown was hit by the tsunami following the 2011 earthquake, his family lost their home and boat. Yet, his father overcame these hardships. Now, warmer water temperatures have reduced the number of fish and his father's health is deteriorating. The program depicts a young man's struggle to make it on his own.
