Documentary patiently following a couple's decade-long battle with dementia. Directed by Ise Shinichi, who got to know the husband, Dr. Ishimoto Koichi, during Shape the Wind.
Warmly portrays the enduring affection between husband and wife and the anguish of Dr. Ishimoto, who also deals with his own depression. Husband Koichi runs a pediatric clinic in Kochi Prefecture's Nankoku City, and his wife Yayoi is diagnosed with dementia while in her 50s. Koichi faces the dilemma of work and caring for his wife, but remains tirelessly supportive as he keeps detailed medical records of her condition.
