Season 12 Episode 25: Countryside Diaries

Fourteen years ago, Motoyama Saho left the big city and bought an abandoned farm. She built a house using scrap wood and has been trying to become self-sufficient. Fate brought her and her husband Kiyoshi together and they now have three children. Together, they harvest wild vegetables in the morning dew and eat fresh eggs from their chickens. They even make their own slippers using wool from their sheep. We follow this family in early spring as they seek joy in everyday tasks.
