Document 72 Hours - Season 4 Episode 17 Rain or Shine: A Laundromat Tale
Chigasaki in Kanagawa Prefecture's Shonan area is a symbol of summer. In a corner of the area often associated with “youth” and “fashion,” there is a 24-hour laundromat that is full of life, and under the rainy season sky in June, people visit one after another with large loads of laundry to spend their time idly waiting for it to dry. Businessmen exhausted from their daily work. People who have lost their beloved spouses and live in solitude. Each of them waits for the “sunshine” that is sure to come in their lives someday.
