[ Story ]
Drama that vividly captures the resolve of foreign migrant workers in Japan. Director Fujimoto Akio portrayed the love of a Myanmar family living in Japan with Passage of Life.
Anh (Huynh Tuyet Anh), Nhu (Quynh Nhu) and Phuong (Hoang Phuong) are Vietnamese women in Japan as technical intern trainees. They flee their exploitative workplace and show up at a snowy harbor town depending on a broker to find them jobs. Soon they face the anxiety of overstaying their visas but start working for the sakes of their families back home.
