Plot summary

Fukagawa plays a girl who returns to her rural hometown in Toyama after failing to make a career in Tokyo. When her grandmother dies and her funeral photo is blurry, she works with her friend in local government to take high quality photos of senior citizens. One elderly woman initially refuses, believing the act of taking a funeral photo to be bad luck, but agrees after Fukagawa offers to take her picture in some place with special significance to her. They rebrand the service as "photographs of memories" and start taking more local seniors on trips to be photographed.
