00:00I was surprised by the two who continue to protect the shop that has been in business for 74 years, but I was even more surprised by the three people who live a life of destruction in the mountains.
00:11My eldest son died in here.
00:16I was told that he was a fugitive.
00:18I was surprised.
00:19He hasn't been cured for a while.
00:21I want to protect my family.
00:25It's amazing.
00:27It's amazing.
00:30What happened to everyone's life?
00:34And tonight.
00:37I thought I'd move my neck for the time being.
00:39I did it like this.
00:41Actress Yutaka Matsushige will appear as a guest.
00:45Yusuke also appeared in the drama.
00:47It's a story about a local gourmet.
00:49It's a mystery private that I don't usually talk about.
00:54Let's go.
00:56Near the prefecture border of Sottori and Okayama.
00:59It's a special episode of the characters of Haran Banjo that I met in the mountains.
01:05First, I came to Tottori Station.
01:09From here, I will go to the end of the local route bus.
01:15My destination is in front of Shizuoka Station, which is close to the prefecture border with Okayama Prefecture.
01:29Thank you very much.
01:31The next stop is Shizuoka Station.
01:35I'll get there.
01:37Thank you very much.
01:38Thank you very much.
01:41I arrived.
01:44He arrived at Shizuoka Station, which is close to the prefecture border of Sottori and Okayama Prefecture.
01:52He asked for information about people living in the prefecture.
01:57Excuse me, everyone.
01:59Do you know anyone who lives in the prefecture?
02:01It's a migrant, Mr. Shimada.
02:03Mr. Shimada?
02:05It's a lot higher than here.
02:08And it's a lot deeper.
02:12From the end of the local route bus, Chizucho to the mountains.
02:17It's about 500 meters above sea level.
02:20A mysterious migrant named Mr. Shimada.
02:23What kind of person is he and what kind of life is he living?
02:28I brought it.
02:29Is that okay?
02:30Let's go.
02:31Let's go.
02:33He said he would send it by car.
02:37And then...
02:41There he is.
02:42There he is.
02:45Is that Keitoro?
02:46It's RSR.
02:48He's in the car.
02:50He's there.
02:51He's over there.
02:53Excuse me.
02:56This is TV Tokyo.
02:59He's cool.
03:01He looks like a farmer.
03:03Hello.
03:04Hello.
03:05I'm Sato from TV Tokyo.
03:08I'm Hiroshi Shimada.
03:10Mr. Hiroshi Shimada.
03:11What do you hear?
03:13I'm sorry.
03:14It's a phone call.
03:17It's high-tech.
03:18I can't use my hands.
03:20I see.
03:22This is Mr. Hiroshi Shimada, 52 years old, who moved to the mountains near Tottori, Okayama, and Kenkyo.
03:33Thank you very much.
03:35Let's do our best.
03:38Do you always do this?
03:40Yes, I do.
03:41It's like a work.
03:42What do you do?
03:43I'm a carpenter.
03:46You're a carpenter?
03:48Yes.
03:51Do you want to go home?
03:52Can I?
03:53Yes.
03:54He got permission to film, so he goes home first.
03:59We're going to the mountains from here.
04:01It's a world of animals.
04:03When it gets dark, the deer will be on the other side.
04:06We'll be on the other side soon.
04:08It's hot.
04:11After 15 minutes on the mountain road, they arrived at this place.
04:17It's a village in the mountains, about 500 meters high.
04:23There are many houses, but most of them are open houses.
04:27Oh, I see.
04:37The house is here.
04:39Is it here?
04:40Yes.
04:41It's big.
04:43How much is it?
04:44It's 60,000 yen.
04:46For a month?
04:47For a year.
04:49For a year?
04:50It's 5,000 yen for a month.
04:52It's expensive.
04:57I'm home.
05:00I'm home.
05:04Yuka?
05:06Excuse me.
05:09Hello.
05:11We have a guest.
05:12Who is it?
05:15Excuse me.
05:16Who is it?
05:17She's on TV.
05:23She's my wife.
05:25I'm Yuka Shimada.
05:27Yuka?
05:28Yes.
05:30The husband, Hiroshi, and the wife, Yuka.
05:34The child, Kazuma, is 16 years old.
05:38The eldest daughter, Yui, is 10 years old.
05:42I want you to show me your room.
05:44Let's not do that.
05:47Let's not do that.
05:48Let's not do that.
05:51What do you mean?
05:54Yui hasn't cleaned up yet.
05:56Let's just clean up one room.
05:58Okay.
05:59Just that room.
06:00Then...
06:01Okay.
06:02The husband is negotiating.
06:04I'm sorry.
06:05Thank you very much.
06:08After she's cleaned up the room,
06:10they visit her again.
06:12Please come in.
06:13Excuse me.
06:21It's a Japanese-style house.
06:22This is the house with a monthly rent of 5,000 yen.
06:27Thank you for coming again.
06:29Please come in.
06:31I've cleaned up.
06:33This is what it looks like after cleaning up.
06:35The ceiling is high.
06:36It's a very beautiful house.
06:38It's a very luxurious house.
06:41How long has it been since you moved here?
06:43It's been about 100 years.
06:45Where were you born, Mr. Shimada?
06:47I was born in Ehime Prefecture.
06:49Ehime Prefecture.
06:50It's a town next to Matsuyama City in Ehime Prefecture.
06:53It's called Masaki Town.
06:55Mr. Hiroshi used to be a truck driver in Ehime Prefecture, Shikoku Prefecture.
07:00His eldest son, Mr. Kazuma, was also born there.
07:03He had a very carefree life.
07:08When he was 40 years old, he quit his job
07:11and moved to the mountains of Tottori Prefecture, where he had no connections.
07:16What's behind the move?
07:21There's a problem.
07:22It hasn't been fixed yet.
07:25It says it's out.
07:27What is it?
07:29I just wanted to protect my family.
07:33Somehow.
07:35What on earth happened?
07:39We continue to investigate the mystery.
07:44The walls were black because of the irori.
07:48That's why it's black.
07:50There was irori here.
07:52It's under here.
07:55Really?
07:56You put this here.
08:01It's difficult to use irori.
08:05But we put a firewood stove here.
08:07This?
08:08We put this here after we moved here.
08:11It's amazing.
08:15It's very useful in winter.
08:18It's cold.
08:20It's cold and there's a gap.
08:22There's a gap?
08:24The room will be open to the public.
08:27Yes, it will.
08:31We can't use that heat anymore.
08:34We collect firewood from somewhere in the summer.
08:38We wait for the firewood to dry in the winter.
08:41Then we use it.
08:43It's about 3 meters deep in the snow.
08:47We've been isolated about three times.
08:50That deep?
08:51We couldn't clear the road down there.
08:56We couldn't get a car to pick us up.
08:59So we've been stuck here.
09:02You've been stuck?
09:03Yes.
09:05How long have you been isolated?
09:07About three days.
09:08Three days?
09:09About three days.
09:12We can't go to school.
09:14It's a pleasure.
09:16We play in the snow.
09:18When we get a call from school,
09:20they ask if we're okay.
09:21We can't go out unless it's our child.
09:24Do you play in the snow?
09:25Yes, we do.
09:29In Chizucho, Tottori Prefecture, where Mr. Shimada lives,
09:33the minimum temperature in winter was minus 12 degrees two years ago.
09:40I didn't know there was such a cold place in Chubu.
09:43It's so cold.
09:46There's only one road from the village to the city,
09:50so some people get isolated because of the snow.
09:56Do you see the window on the second floor?
09:59There was snow up to the window.
10:04Up to the window?
10:05Yes.
10:06There was snow up to the window.
10:11It was the worst time.
10:16Mr. Kazuma, the eldest son, lives in a snowy village in the middle of winter.
10:23It's inconvenient, but it's a good place.
10:26It's easier to sleep than the city.
10:30It's quiet and easy to sleep.
10:32It's far from school.
10:34How far is it?
10:36About 10 kilometers.
10:38It's hard to go home by bicycle.
10:43I can't go home.
10:4710 kilometers?
10:53Is this all Mr. Shimada's?
10:55From here to the horizon.
10:59How far is it?
11:00It's as far as you can see.
11:02Over there?
11:03It's over the bamboo forest.
11:05You can see the warehouse over there.
11:07It's so big.
11:08The orange roof.
11:10Yes.
11:12The vast field is 1,800 acres.
11:17It's about 23 years older than the tennis court.
11:21It's huge.
11:23This is sweet potato.
11:25And this is daikon.
11:28Do you always work alone?
11:31Yes.
11:33And the grass cutting machine is broken.
11:37It's a disaster.
11:39It's a disaster.
11:41It's hard to get the parts.
11:45It's hard.
11:46Yes, it is.
11:48I collect all the grass I like.
11:52This is...
11:54Did you buy this all by yourself?
11:56Yes, I collected all the vegetables.
11:58There are a lot of vegetables.
12:01Tempura is the best.
12:05I'll keep doing this.
12:06If I can grow eggplant, I'll grow eggplant.
12:09I'll cry.
12:10Tempura.
12:11I don't have this.
12:13In the 1,800-acre land,
12:16there are more than 30 kinds of vegetables,
12:21including eggplants, bell peppers, and tomatoes.
12:28Vegetables are almost self-sufficient.
12:34Hiroshi was born in Masaki-cho, Iyogun, Ehime Prefecture.
12:40After graduating from high school,
12:42he became a truck driver.
12:45When he was 35, he married Yuka, who was 7 years younger than him.
12:52The next year, his eldest son, Kazuma, was born.
12:56However...
12:58When my son was born, he had a lot of allergies.
13:02He's been drooling all the time.
13:04I see.
13:05Babies drool at first,
13:07but he's been drooling all the time without getting better.
13:11I had to do a blood test to determine the cause of his allergies.
13:16There were a lot of questions about the number.
13:19There was almost nothing to eat.
13:21There was also rice.
13:23Rice?
13:24All kinds of soybeans.
13:26It's hard to eat rice.
13:28What should I eat?
13:31I was wondering what to feed him.
13:33There was also breast milk, which I ate.
13:36I decided not to give him breast milk.
13:39I see.
13:42Right after he was born,
13:44his eldest son, Kazuma, was diagnosed with a food allergy of 10 degrees.
13:50After a blood test,
13:52he was diagnosed with an allergy to more than 50 kinds of food,
13:57including rice, vegetables, eggs, and soybeans.
14:01There's nothing to eat.
14:03Really?
14:06Hiroshi made a decision.
14:11I wanted to make something for my son and his wife to eat with confidence.
14:18I just wanted to protect my family.
14:24He decided to make something for his son to eat with confidence.
14:30With that in mind,
14:32he moved to the mountains of Tottori Prefecture,
14:35where there is a lot of nature and a lot of fields.
14:39Did your allergies get better after coming here?
14:43Yes, they got better.
14:46I'm glad.
14:47The water is good, right?
14:49And the air, too.
14:51When I was at the station, I was worried about food.
14:56But it didn't get any better than that.
14:59But after coming here,
15:01I think it's changed a lot.
15:05I don't have any allergies anymore.
15:09I don't have any problems eating at home.
15:12I live a normal life.
15:14You must have been moved by your son when you first ate katsudon.
15:17Yes, I was moved.
15:18I was like, I can't eat this.
15:21I was moved.
15:24Speaking of food,
15:26Mr. Yutaka Matsushige, who plays a leading role in the drama Kodoku no Gurume
15:29and conveys the charm of food every day.
15:34Recently, he became famous for his first megaphone as a director.
15:39And...
15:41He was interested in how to eat Yusuke, who starred in the drama last year.
15:49Kodoku no Gurume is new, isn't it?
15:52Until now, I've only eaten delicious food.
15:56But when I eat it, I look delicious.
15:59I don't do that.
16:00It's novel.
16:01I just eat it.
16:03But Yusuke's way of eating was wonderful.
16:06Mr. Matsushige gave me some advice.
16:08What kind of advice was it?
16:10It's normal.
16:12He told me to do it with Yusuke.
16:16It's very interesting how Yusuke eats and how fast he eats.
16:22It's different depending on how you hold chopsticks and how you eat.
16:26Mr. Matsushige was watching it on the monitor.
16:29It was hell at first.
16:32How much pressure was there?
16:34I think everyone was nervous.
16:36Mr. Matsushige was in front of the monitor like this.
16:40His son was moved when he first ate the grasshopper.
16:43Yes, I was moved.
16:44I was moved that I couldn't eat it.
16:51In Hiroshi's and Kazuma's case,
16:55due to living in a place rich in nature,
16:58the symptoms of allergies gradually improved.
17:03Now that he's 16 years old,
17:05he can eat almost everything.
17:10When I first came here,
17:12there was something like a gin machine.
17:16I remember it was hard.
17:19I'm glad I can eat it now.
17:21What's your favorite food now?
17:23My favorite food is...
17:25I can eat omelette and rice omelette.
17:28It's a food I've always wanted to eat.
17:30I'm happy.
17:32I see.
17:35It's a little different from what you usually like.
17:39Mr. Kazuma is now
17:41making chicken coop and post office.
17:45He's doing his best to help his family.
17:50From Mr. Shimada's house,
17:52where his family helped each other and overcame hardships,
17:56to the mountains near the border with Okayama,
18:00what kind of life will the person
18:04who lives a full life have this time?
18:10It's a very quiet place.
18:13All I can see is green.
18:27Is there something?
18:30What's that sound?
18:37What's that?
18:40They head towards a mysterious sound.
18:48Oh.
18:50Someone's there.
18:54Is that a person?
18:55Excuse me.
18:57Hello.
19:00I'm from TV Tokyo.
19:04This way?
19:07Excuse me.
19:09Excuse me.
19:11I'm Sato from TV Tokyo.
19:16I heard a sound.
19:18That's the field.
19:20If you go up there, you can see it.
19:23Let's follow them.
19:24Okay.
19:25This is a pumpkin.
19:29It makes a sound to protect itself from deer.
19:37That's the sound.
19:38Yes.
19:40There are so many dogs.
19:42There are many kinds of dogs.
19:44I think there were about 60 of them.
19:48It's moving.
19:49It's moving.
19:50It's not quiet.
19:52It's quiet, but it's noisy.
19:57In recent years,
19:59the damage caused by deer to the field has increased rapidly.
20:03That's a lot.
20:04To protect the precious pumpkin,
20:06a sensor for defense is installed.
20:10Once again,
20:11this is Meiko Fujiwara,
20:14who lives in a mountain about 500 meters high in Tottori Prefecture.
20:18She is 69 years old.
20:20If you pull out one,
20:22you can see a tree with three leaves.
20:24Three leaves?
20:25Yes.
20:26There is a tree.
20:27Is this it?
20:28Yes.
20:29Can you eat it?
20:30Yes.
20:31If you crush it,
20:32you can make a powder residue.
20:34Do you want to see the powder residue?
20:38Do you have it?
20:39Do you have it?
20:40She made it herself.
20:42It's a nice house.
20:45Do you see this?
20:47It's a powder residue.
20:49I made it myself.
20:53She's careful.
20:55I think it has a faint smell.
21:03It smells good.
21:04It smells like pepper.
21:05Right?
21:06It's spicy.
21:07Try it.
21:09Excuse me.
21:10It's good.
21:11It's like fried chicken.
21:15It's spicy.
21:17It's quite spicy.
21:18Ms. Fujiwara eats handmade pepper
21:21with fried chicken and blue fish.
21:26I was born in this house
21:29and welcomed my husband as my son-in-law.
21:32Is that so?
21:33Yes.
21:34I have two older sisters.
21:35They were already married outside of the prefecture.
21:41I'm the youngest of three,
21:45so I have to take care of them.
21:49Ms. Fujiwara was born as the youngest of three
21:53in a village in the mountains in the 1930s.
21:58She married Mr. Fumio when she was 25 years old.
22:04She was blessed with three children.
22:09What did your husband do for a living?
22:12He was a carpenter.
22:15He made all these frames.
22:19This?
22:20Yes, he was a carpenter.
22:22That's amazing.
22:23When he built this house,
22:25he was very particular about it.
22:29That young man in the glasses is my husband.
22:33He passed away when he was 54.
22:36I think it was close to the age I am now.
22:40I see.
22:42I'm glad that my children took care of him.
22:48Ms. Fujiwara's husband, Mr. Fumio, is now 18 years old.
22:54He was still 54 years old when he passed away.
22:58I don't think I would have been able to do this
23:01if I hadn't been so sad.
23:03Now that I think about it,
23:05I had a job.
23:07She said she didn't want to cause trouble
23:10to her children who were growing up.
23:14Ms. Fujiwara used to work at the Agricultural Cooperative
23:17for her living expenses.
23:20But suddenly, she had a tragedy.
23:26It was five years ago.
23:28She was at work.
23:31It was strange.
23:32It was different from what I was used to.
23:34I started working more and more.
23:36That's what I thought.
23:37I thought I was doing a good job,
23:39but my legs wouldn't go up.
23:42They wouldn't move.
23:44Even my fingers wouldn't move.
23:46I wondered why.
23:47I wondered if I was tired.
23:49I wondered if I was still tired.
23:52It was harder for her to move her right hand and right leg than usual.
23:57Ms. Fujiwara had a bad feeling about this.
23:59She went to the hospital in her colleague's car.
24:03I was told that I had high blood pressure.
24:06I was surprised.
24:07At the time, I didn't understand what kind of disease it was.
24:11I was in the hospital for rehabilitation.
24:14Ms. Fujiwara was hospitalized on that day.
24:19Her life was not in danger,
24:21but her right leg was barely moving.
24:24Her right hand was only 10 kg.
24:30She was in the hospital for five months
24:33for her medication and three hours of rehabilitation a day.
24:37Oh, my.
24:38It would have been hard if it was the right hand.
24:41I still have bruises on my right leg and right hand.
24:46I can't do anything with my hands.
24:48I can't hold a toothbrush,
24:50I can't do anything with my hands.
24:53I can't even write.
24:55I'm left-handed.
24:59She was originally right-handed,
25:01but she said her right leg was hard to move.
25:05After being discharged from the hospital,
25:07she was trying to change her right arm to her left hand.
25:11It's a big deal.
25:14However, another tragedy struck Ms. Fujiwara.
25:20There was a car for people with disabilities
25:22who could step on the accelerator with their left foot.
25:25I ordered it and asked for it.
25:28And I caused an accident on the day of delivery.
25:32All of a sudden?
25:34It's about 12 kilometers from her home to the nearest supermarket.
25:40It takes about two and a half hours on foot,
25:43so she needs a car.
25:46Ms. Fujiwara, whose right leg was hard to move
25:48because of her high blood pressure,
25:51bought a second-hand car
25:53that could step on the accelerator and brake with her left foot.
25:58Ms. Fujiwara was paying close attention to the accident.
26:03However, it was an unfamiliar car,
26:05so it caused an accident on the day of delivery.
26:09I fell off a cliff.
26:11You fell off a cliff?
26:13Yes, after two or three meters.
26:15I was surprised.
26:17Why did you fall?
26:19I thought I was bent, so I fell.
26:22I think I couldn't step on the accelerator.
26:27It's difficult.
26:29All of a sudden?
26:30Yes.
26:33When she turned the curve,
26:35she couldn't step on the accelerator with her left foot,
26:39so she fell.
26:42Fortunately, there was a shed at the end of the cliff,
26:46so she miraculously survived the accident.
26:50You didn't take a car from there?
26:52No, I didn't.
26:54It must have been tough.
26:56I had to rely on my daughter.
26:58I didn't know if she was sick or had an accident,
27:02so I thought,
27:04if I could survive until my daughter's wedding,
27:09I would be happy.
27:11The eldest is 18 years old,
27:13and the second is 4 years old.
27:15I don't know how it will be until she's 4 years old,
27:18but I hope I can see her when I can.
27:21I want to tell my husband stories like that.
27:29I think it's a valuable way of life.
27:38Currently, her daughter, who lives in the same district,
27:42comes to see her regularly and takes her shopping.
27:48Mr. Fujiwara, who has experienced such a life-threatening accident twice,
27:52was also surprised.
27:55Beyond the prefecture,
27:58in a village deep in the mountains in Okayama Prefecture,
28:02there is a person who lives a more surprising life.
28:08What kind of person is he and what kind of cowardly life is he living?
28:14There is a small village.
28:16There is a small village.
28:20Since he found a private house,
28:22he decided to get off the taxi and search for it.
28:26I'm sorry to bother you.
28:28No problem.
28:29I'm glad you found a good place.
28:31It's not bad to run at high speed.
28:35Thank you very much.
28:37Be careful.
28:39He arrived at a village near the prefecture of Okayama and Tottori,
28:44which is a village of only five generations.
28:49The number of houses has increased a little.
28:54Is there anyone?
28:57Excuse me.
29:04Excuse me.
29:05Yes.
29:07Excuse me.
29:09I'm from TV Tokyo.
29:11Yes.
29:12Can I ask you a question?
29:14TV Tokyo?
29:15Yes.
29:16What do you do?
29:19You're very thin.
29:22You have a great abs.
29:24You have a great body.
29:26I'm on a program called Why There.
29:30You're wearing a school uniform.
29:32Excuse me.
29:33Can I talk to you for a moment?
29:34Excuse me.
29:37You're naked.
29:39I usually dress like this.
29:42He came out for a moment.
29:45Excuse me.
29:47Excuse me.
29:48Yes.
29:49I'm looking for someone who lives in Hikyo.
29:52Hikyo?
29:53Yes.
29:54Hikyo.
29:56I'm sorry.
29:57My name is Sato.
29:59I'm Okada.
30:00Mr. Okada.
30:01Yes.
30:02This is the town of Okayama and Tottori.
30:05Mr. Kaoru Okada, 71 years old.
30:08He lives in a small town of five generations.
30:13We decided to visit his house.
30:17Excuse me.
30:18Yes.
30:19Excuse me.
30:26What do you usually do at home?
30:29I usually clean up and relax.
30:33Is that so?
30:34Yes.
30:35Your fridge is big.
30:37Yes, it is.
30:38It's spacious.
30:40What's in there?
30:41There's nothing in there.
30:42It's just dried plums and beer.
30:47That's about it.
30:48I see.
30:50I like it.
30:51I think he has a lot of things in stock.
30:55Mr. Okada looks cheerful,
30:59but there's a sad story behind his smile.
31:17What happened to their son?
31:24To find out the mystery,
31:26we visited a small town of five generations.
31:31There used to be a mountain.
31:33A mountain?
31:34There used to be fish, but they're gone now.
31:37The river is dirty.
31:39It's so beautiful.
31:40I used to catch them with a fishing rod.
31:44That's all I did.
31:48The elementary school is over there.
31:51Over there?
31:53Yes.
31:54We walked all the way over the mountain.
31:57How did you walk?
31:58We walked all the way over the mountain.
32:01For six years.
32:04It took about two hours.
32:06Two hours?
32:07One way?
32:08Yes.
32:09That's amazing.
32:11It took two hours to get to the elementary school.
32:14They had to walk for four hours on the way back and forth.
32:18They walked for six years.
32:21We were surprised by Mr. Okada's tragic story,
32:25but Mr. Yutaka Matsushige, an actor,
32:28also had a tragic experience while filming a drama.
32:32There's a place called Jukai.
32:34Jukai?
32:35I went to Jukai to film a late-night drama at night.
32:40I played a zombie.
32:42I was buried in the ground, breathing through a hole.
32:47That serious?
32:48I said, ready, action!
32:51After a few seconds, I came out of the hole
32:54and asked the main character to attack me.
32:57That's a long story.
32:59It was a long story.
33:01I came out of the hole
33:03and tried to move my neck.
33:05I tried to move my neck.
33:07The next day, I couldn't move my neck.
33:10You had a stroke?
33:11Yes, I had a stroke.
33:13I asked, what did you do?
33:14Do you know what a zombie is?
33:16That's how you explained it?
33:17That's how I explained it.
33:18At that time, the concept of zombies moving their necks
33:21hadn't settled down.
33:22It hasn't settled down yet.
33:24It's a new zombie genre.
33:28That's the guy next to you.
33:30What?
33:37He's 90 years old.
33:3990 years old?
33:43Where did you film it?
33:45Where did you film it?
33:46I watched it on TV.
33:47I watched it on TV Tokyo.
33:49You said tea, so I was like, no, I'm good.
33:51Can we talk?
33:53Sorry for the sudden visit.
33:54I had a great tea.
33:59My name is Sato.
34:03Can I ask your name?
34:05I'm Hiroshi Sugawara.
34:06Mr. Sugawara.
34:08Hiroshi Sugawara, 91 years old.
34:11I've known Mr. Okada for a long time.
34:17Where did you come back from?
34:20I came back from the rice paddies.
34:22Oh, you went to the rice paddies.
34:24I heard that it's not safe to be alone in the morning.
34:28You should go home.
34:30Oh, I'm sorry. No, no.
34:32Take your time.
34:35I'm driving a Kei truck.
34:37You're healthier than me.
34:40Mr. Okada, who drives a Kei truck, is very energetic.
34:45After this, he lives in the mountains with only five children.
34:49He is 91 years old.
34:51His life is even more surprising.
34:54I don't do anything by myself.
35:01He is 91 years old.
35:04Is it hot?
35:07It's very thin.
35:09Is it hot?
35:10Yes, it's hot.
35:12What's that?
35:14This is an electric fence.
35:16Electric fence?
35:21Mr. Yutaka Matsuge, who starred in a movie called Kodoku no Gurume, which will be released tomorrow.
35:29He has been working with a famous person since he was young.
35:33In this movie, he will form a miraculous team for the first time in 40 years.
35:38I joined the company on the same day as my friend.
35:44We decided to make a movie together.
35:48But I couldn't get the funding for the movie, so I gave up on it.
35:54Mr. Hiroto Koumoto, who starred in the movie I directed for the first time in 40 years, joined the company on the same day as my friend.
36:05It's a miracle, isn't it?
36:06I don't think there's such a miracle.
36:08Did you tell him that you wanted to make a movie together?
36:11We made a movie together.
36:13We made a movie together.
36:15Do you want to see it?
36:17I want to see it.
36:18What should we do?
36:20For example, when Kodoku no Gurume is released on Blu-ray,
36:24I want to see it.
36:27I'll talk to Mr. Hiroto.
36:29Are you sure?
36:30You can't do that.
36:33This is a mountain near the prefecture of Okayama.
36:38Mr. Kaoru Okada, 71 years old, and Mr. Hiroshi Sugahara, 91 years old, live in a small village.
36:49Can you show me the field?
36:52I don't have a field to show you.
36:58Mr. Sugahara, who is 91 years old, is still active in the field.
37:06How much is this?
37:08This is all.
37:10You did this all by yourself, didn't you?
37:11Yes, I did it all by myself.
37:13That's amazing.
37:15This is eggplant.
37:17This is eggplant.
37:19This is a fine eggplant.
37:21This is paprika.
37:23Are you making paprika?
37:25Can you make it now?
37:27It's a little late now.
37:29I can make paprika by myself.
37:33I eat the skin and eat the seeds inside.
37:38You can do that.
37:41I don't do anything by myself.
37:45You look like a monster.
37:48He also grows peppers, pumpkins, and cabbages.
37:57Despite his age of 91, he grows more than 15 kinds of vegetables by himself.
38:06They live next to each other in a village of only five people.
38:12Do you know Mr. Sugahara since you were a child?
38:15I've known him since I was born.
38:18He was much older than me when I was young.
38:21He was much older than me.
38:23He was 70 or 80 years old.
38:27Do you ever feel uncomfortable?
38:30I'm used to it now, so I don't feel uncomfortable.
38:36I think they get along well because there is no water here.
38:41They talk to each other in the morning.
38:45Mr. Maya.
38:47They get along well.
38:49They sit around me in the field.
38:55I want to go there, but I can't.
38:59Mr. Okada, who is 71 years old, lives in a village of only five people.
39:07He is doing everything he can on this mountain.
39:16What is the life drama of Mr. Haranbanjo?
39:21I can't do anything.
39:23That's all I can do.
39:29I can't believe it.
39:34Mr. Yutaka Matsushige plays the leading role in the drama, Kodoku no Gurume.
39:39He is a superstar who makes the world go round.
39:42They used to be neighbors.
39:45When we were young,
39:48my mother came to my house to play games because she was late.
39:54She told me she was playing soccer.
39:57I told her to do her best.
40:00She told me she was playing soccer at Tsukuba University.
40:03I told her she was doing her best.
40:05I thought it would be fun to go to J-1.
40:07I jumped over J-1 and became Kaoru Mitoma, who is now active in Brighton.
40:13Kaoru Mitoma?
40:15Kaoru Mitoma lives next door.
40:18He lives next door.
40:21He used to play games at my house when my mother was late.
40:25Now he is a world-renowned player.
40:28I think there is a connection.
40:30I think so, too.
40:32I think so, too.
40:35In the mountains near the prefecture of Kenkyo,
40:39Mr. Kaoru Okada lives alone in a house of five generations.
40:44He is 71 years old.
40:48I'll bring you some water.
40:53365 days in the mountains.
40:56He does this every day.
41:01I'll lift this up.
41:04It's up here.
41:06I see.
41:18It's here.
41:20Here?
41:24Is this Mr. Okada's house?
41:27Yes, it is.
41:30Rainy days and windy days.
41:34365 days.
41:36He goes to the grave every day.
41:42My eldest son died in here.
41:47Mr. Okada was born in the mountains near the prefecture of Kenkyo,
41:51between Okayama and Tottori, in the year of the Ox.
41:55He got married at the age of 24.
41:59He was blessed with three children.
42:02I used to play rugby.
42:04I went to the prefecture of Kenkyo.
42:06I was the captain of the prefecture of Kenkyo.
42:10I went to see most of the matches.
42:12Was there a reason you started playing rugby?
42:15I liked it.
42:16I didn't have any other rugby experience.
42:18But I liked watching rugby.
42:20I liked it.
42:22Mr. Hideaki, the eldest son, was influenced by his father's interest in rugby.
42:28Mr. Shohei, the third son, was fascinated by rugby.
42:34Mr. Shohei was one of the best rugby players in the prefecture of Kenkyo.
42:44After his retirement,
42:46the three brothers worked at a construction company run by his father, Mr. Okada.
42:53However...
42:55My eldest son was diagnosed with myocardial infarction.
43:00Did he go to the hospital?
43:01No, not at all.
43:02He suddenly came to me.
43:04I took him to the emergency room.
43:06But he didn't get better.
43:10Three years ago, Mr. Hideaki, the eldest son, was diagnosed with myocardial infarction.
43:17He couldn't go home because he was 46 years old.
43:22And...
43:26It was an accident.
43:28What kind of accident was it?
43:30It was a car accident.
43:32A car accident.
43:34I still feel sad about it.
43:40In February last year,
43:42Mr. Shohei, the third son, had a car accident on his way home.
43:49He was only 40 years old.
43:5340 years old.
43:55He was so young.
43:57I thought I had to do something.
44:02But I couldn't do anything.
44:05That's all I can do for my parents.
44:17After losing his eldest son,
44:19Mr. Okada, who has a high birth rate and lives alone in a house deep in the mountains,
44:27still has a reason to live.
44:34Don't step on it too much.
44:37It's naked.
44:41That's nice.
44:46I still feel sad about it.
44:52I got this from someone.
44:55I can't cut it.
44:57To be continued.
45:27To be continued.
45:57To be continued.
46:27I don't know what's going to happen.
46:30But when I wake up in the middle of the night,
46:33I look over here.
46:35I wonder if he's doing well.
46:37I call out to him.
46:39When I'm alone, I feel lonely.
46:42I want to get along with him.
46:47Don't do it again.
46:49Don't do it.
46:50Don't do it.
46:52Why are you there?
46:53TVER U-NEXT is now available.
