Akira’s son Yuto, who is obsessed with handheld fireworks, is handicapped in communicating with others, but has a talent for drawing pictures. However, Akira shows no interest in Yuto’s drawings. One day, Akira falls ill and is told he has little time left to live after a check-up at the hospital.

Producer Yuriko Taniguchi is here! Q&A time scheduled after the movie screening
【From the film festival office】
Movies are a way to express feelings. In addition to becoming a director and making movies myself, I sometimes start making movies in the position of a “producer.” There are times when you can complete a movie by connecting people and things that you can shoot yourself and do without editing. This movie is about Yuriko Taniguchi who meets the people of Toyohashi and says, “Let’s make a movie with these people and this place!” I worked hard with this passion, and it took shape. Fierce fireworks are set off on a snowy screen to connect the feelings of parents and children. Please come and see it. We have warm drinks ready for you.
We are planning to have hot drinks made over a bonfire at the Snow Theater during the screening.
【menu】
1.Sweet and sour warm Swedish hot berry juice
2.Finnish coffee is made in the forest by putting beans in a kettle and setting it on a bonfire.
※The screening will be held outdoors in a snowy mountain, so it will be held close to nature. We would like to implement this event with the safety of our audience and staff as our top priority. Screening times and drink schedules may change depending on weather conditions. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
