Bitter and Sweet: A Strawberry Farming Family

A father and son team of strawberry farmers in northeastern Japan faces tough times after the March 2011 tsunami devastates their hometown. To survive, the son decides he and his family must take a chance on farming far away, in Hokkaido Prefecture. 2 generations embark on separate paths, each full of challenges. As the son struggles to adapt to a new environment and to meet buyers' demands, his father works to revive the destroyed fields back home. This program follows their journey, both bitter and sweet, for 9 years.
