In the decades since the end of World War Ⅱ, the Noren Central Market has been an essential part of Okinawa Prefecture's main city, Naha. Many women, now senior citizens, have spent much of their lives working here, standing shoulder-to-shoulder through good times and bad. Ever since it opened, the market has reflected Okinawa's post-war appearance and energy. But now it's being demolished and relocated. This program takes a closer look at the women during their final days at this historic market and their new beginnings.
