Synopsis
Yojin, an eccentric young farmer who lives in the countryside, falls in love for the first time in his life with Machiko, a nursery school teacher from Tokyo. Yojin visits her everyday and unabashedly tells her how much he loves her, regardless of the fact that she is unable to overcome the trauma of losing her boyfriend in a car accident. Yojin's strong, straightforward feelings for Machiko create one outlandish miracle after another.
