The dishes in an obento are a reflection of “someone’s” heart from ‘then’ until ‘now’.
Obentos have been made somewhere in kitchens in towns every morning.
One day for an obento made with a quite elaborate hand;
One day for an obento made with a quick, simple hand;
One day for an obento left behind on a table by a careless forgetful hand;
One day without an obento because of “someone’s” oversleeping.
An obento stays close beside us day by day.
but strangely enough, an obento is quite common and a matter of course.
This film is dedicated to all those people as “someone” who makes an obento.
