The Perfect Homecoming

Matsunaga Toru returns home for the first time in four decades. His vague memory leads him to the house. His mother welcomes him with a warm smile. A nostalgic house, comforting food, and a mother who happily fusses over you—Toru feels truly at home. Strangely, though, he cannot remember his mother's name... Meanwhile, Koga Natsuo also embarks on a long-postponed homecoming. Waiting for her is the same house, the same "mother." Murota Seiichi, recently widowed, likewise heads for the same "hometown" and "mother"... Who is their "mother", really? And what sort of life did she have? None of her "kids" know. When the truth is revealed, emotions swell. A story about family, love, and belonging—and how there is a core of truth, even in make-believe. (Source: NHK Enterprises Catalog) Edit Translation
