Mieruhi - Coming Home -

Kosuke(Shigeru Izumiya) struggles to carry on a family tradition of lamprey eel fishing on the Ishikari River. But discouraged by dwindling catches, his constant quarrelling with his wife leads her to leave him. After their divorce, his only son Tsuyoshi(Ken Yasuda) grows to detest his father and also abandons him and their rapidly declining hometown. Ten years pass and Kosuke doesn't hear a word from his son.

Now over 60, Kosuke contemplates getting remarried. "Tsuyoshi will probably never return home- I should renovate this house so we can start life anew when we get married..." But just then, Tsuyoshi suddenly returns. Facing hard times, Tsuyoshi has lost his bearings and can't seem to find his way. He has hit rock bottom and has nowhere to turn but to a father and hometown he despises.

This program weaves a detailed tapestry of emotions as a father supports his son's struggle to find himself in a hometown to which he has unexpectedly returned.
