Synopsis
Young and handsome Ryunosuke Kusunoki is a new arrival in a Hokkaido village, to which his government official father, Mr. Kusonoki, has been sent to acquire land to push through a new airport. Mr. Kusunoki must persuade the resistant farm community to do his bidding. Ryunosuke has his own problems trying to fit in at his new school. Initially, he has trouble with local farm boy Kohei Tsuchida. However, eventually, the pair becomes fast friends, amusing themselves with activities like exploding cow patties over the villagers. As Ryunosuke bonds with the locals, he increasingly turns against his father and his father's official business.
