Little Forest Summer and Autumn Chapter 2014

Ordinary girl Ichiko (played by Hashimoto Ai) grew up in Komori, a village in the northeastern region of Japan. This place is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, surrounded by green mountains and green waters, just like a quiet and pleasant paradise. The villagers work at sunrise and rest at sunset, relying on a pair of hard-working hands to manage a small but comfortable life without competing with the world. Ichiko once traveled to Tokyo, but she was unable to adapt to the fast pace of the city, and eventually returned to the old house where her mother was no longer there. When she was a child, her mother Fukuko used various ingredients from the mountains and fields to make delicacies with random names. While the solid-eyed Ichiko lamented being deceived, she also kept the beautiful memories deep in her taste buds. As if following her mother's footsteps, she incorporates her love for her hometown into the cooking of her food. Surrounded by friends Yuta (played by Takahiro Miura) and Yoshiko (played by Mayu Matsuoka), enjoying a carefree life... This film is adapted from the comics by Daisuke Igarashi.
