Overview
The Sanya district of Tokyo is home to those pushed to the margins of society. For over 35 years, Shinpei and Hiroko Ishibashi ran a humble soup shop there. In 2020, large-scale redevelopment began in anticipation of the Tokyo Olympics. The elderly and unemployed were left behind, forgotten amid the city's transformation. Hoping to rebuildcommunity ties, Magokoro Yoshihira, a customer of the soup shop began cleaning the streets alongside the elderly. As Magokoro and the elders made a soup to serve, they begin to realise that what was truly passed down was not a recipe, but the time spent together—remembering, cooking, and reconnecting.
