Description

[Machine Translation] He who strikes the net. The one who strikes the end. Taiji, a fishing village on the Kii Peninsula, has established "organized whaling," a rare fishing method in the world, in which each member of a group uses his or her skills to confront the whale. However, the village has a strict code of conduct because of the danger of this method of fishing, in which death awaits the whaler as soon as he or she loses trust with his or her fellow whalers. A drifter. Those who struggle with their own way of life. Heretics. This is the longest work of his career, depicting the dramatic life of a community from the Edo period to the Meiji era.
