“If you only have a chance to take one more picture in your lifetime, what would you choose to take?” Masashi’s answer was “family.”
Masashi (Kazuya Ninomiya) loved to take pictures from his early days when his shutterbug father gave him his camera.
One day, his photo won the Kimura Ihei Award, the most prestigious award in the industry. The award-winning photo was his unique “family picture” which his family members disguised in a costume of his/her dream job, such as a firefighter, a car racer, or a hero; or them doing what they dreamt to do such as attending an eating contest.
Receiving numerous requests from families all over Japan, Masashi started building his career as a successful photographer. But around the same time, the great earthquake struck eastern Japan.
Masashi visited the affected areas to check the whereabouts of the families he took photos of before, but what he saw there were people losing their loved ones and homes.
