Abstract

Live-action film adaptation in 2019. The latest in a very popular series that has sold a total of 800,000 copies!
This is an island where only grandfathers, grandmothers, and cats live.

Grandpa Daikichi lives with his cat Tama.
When he buys Tama a fish toy, Tama doesn't care. Even when he secretly hides treats, before he knows it, they are discovered and scattered all over the place.

In such a life, I sometimes think back to
The chanbara movies my father took me to, the small kotatsu (a table over the kotatsu) that the whole family sat around together, and the local train trips my wife and I took.
Time has passed, my parents and wife have passed away, and some people come to the island while others leave.

That is why, as one person and one animal, we are determined to live happily today.
