Beyond Winter

The story of five people who work at a mountain hut on Mount Nasu until spring. The ski resort where they work every year has been closed... A young woman who feels inferior to her family works tirelessly in a lotus root field, getting her entire body dirty, while the second son of a dairy farmer hesitates to take over the family business. A young man who grew up in an orphanage and a girl who witnessed her father's suicide. A story of renewal where the townspeople warmly support them.
