Synopsis
A glimpse into a part of Japan that is covered by snow most of the year. There, the people have developed their very own every-day life and rituals. The children build themselves castles out of snow where they cook and sing. In spring, the farmers free their land by cutting blocks of snow and carrying it away, so they can start cultivating rice and vegetables. Houses, temples and even theaters are being built out of snow.
