Chihiro Tobe, 1988. "Michinori" is an independent 8mm film that amateurs made as a hobby while having fun. Hiroaki Kasai (25) (Koji Watanabe) works at a small town factory in the suburbs of Tokyo. He had a lover named Miyuki Oribe (21) (Toyomi Nonaka) who lives in Shimiya City, Iwate Prefecture. The two of them confirmed each other's feelings while supplementing the handicap of the distance of Tokyo-Iwate with letters and telephones.
