Synopsis

After 2011 Tohoku disaster, volunteers rescue displaced pets, reuniting dog Gonta with the Tomita family.

On March 11, 2011, a devastating earthquake and tsunami struck Japan's Tohoku region. In the chaos of evacuation, the Tomita family is forced to leave behind their beloved 8-year-old dog, Gonta. Meanwhile in Tokyo, university student Yoshino joins a volunteer pet rescue group and travels to the disaster zone. There, she encounters a dog in need of help and begins a journey that will connect her with the Tomita family and the pet rescue community. As Yoshino becomes more deeply involved in animal rescue efforts, she discovers her own personal connection to this important work. The story follows the intertwined fates of the displaced pets and the people working to reunite them with their families in the aftermath of the disaster.
