As a housewife from a fishing village, she was actually stumped by a fish, and the housewife who can't handle a fish must not be a good cook, and it is not surprising that her son came back with a packed fast food in his hand.
His father, Yoshiyuki Suzuki (Fumiyoshi Kohinichi), is a company employee, a middle-aged man who is careful in the workplace, he is a good employee, but not a good father and a good husband.
On the first day of the power outage, when the tram could not start, he actually wanted the staff to get up to prove the delay, and it was hard to rush to the office The young people were gossiping about the power outage, only he was seriously thinking about what to do if the work was delayed.
The day after the blackout, in order to get to work on time, he bought a bicycle at a high price.
But like many men, he became a grandfather who opened his mouth after returning home from work, only caring about his own food, watching TV, ignoring his wife's feelings, and casually supporting his wife to work, and ignoring the growth of his children.
Brother Kenji, living in his own world, does not even say hello when he comes home.
My sister is dressed, loves to dress up, chatters and argues all day long, and always complains that life is not satisfactory.
On the first day of the blackout, everyone was immersed in a brief period of excitement, and the housewives said that they could finally rest for a day.
In the evening, everyone sat together and opened a candlelit dinner, after the meal without a mobile phone, everyone came to the balcony together, and there were long-lost stars in the sky, and the daughter said that she was very surprised that the stars could be so bright, and there was really a Milky Way.

After 7 days of power outage, the streets were full of garbage, the food section of the supermarket was empty, and the people around them gradually left the city and went far away.
The Suzuki family eventually decided to go to the countryside to join their grandfather's house, and with all the food and cash in the family, they rode a bicycle to start a survival trip that they could go, in the words of their mother, as if the family were going on an outing, but in fact, this was just the beginning.
During a break on the way, an uncle in the park made a dried fish from a large goldfish net that used to be used for ornamentation, and they scoffed at it.
As everyone knows, when their food is exhausted, passing by the aquarium, the father kneels down and begs the staff just to give the two children a little fish to eat.
When they were so hungry that they had to eat canned cats and drink the electrolyte for battery cars, they met a survival master in the wild, who was still dressed cleanly and tidy without electricity, not only with clean water to drink but also fragrant food to eat.
Isn't their family a mirror of Suzuki's boss's family? They understand the three elements of survival: maintaining body temperature, staying hydrated, and building their own fire.

When encountering the river, everyone no longer panicked, no longer chose to take a detour, no longer complained, everyone collected wood and plastic bottles together, and made a simple raft to cross the river.
The father was washed away by the river as a means of transportation for everyone, and the mother broke her calf to protect the last food.
After experiencing hardships, the family lived a life of sunrise and sunset in my grandfather's small fishing village.
Yui learned to weave, Kenji and his father became good at going out to sea to fish, and his mother learned more about food.
There are many ironic little details in this movie, when our survival encounters a crisis, the first thing to fall is the civilization that was originally advertised.
Mountains of garbage piled up on the streets after the power outage;
Neighbors lock their dogs in their homes without water or electricity when they flee the city;
The public toilet is so disgusting that it is inaccessible, and the knot can only hide behind the greenery to go to the toilet and turn his head but see the slogan Please take the home to deal with;
Maserati and Rolex can't get a grain of rice;
The creatures in the aquarium finally became a lifesaver for everyone.
Without electricity, the city life we've been chasing becomes a mess.
This film is not as exciting as other disaster films, but starts with the daily small things of ordinary families, which laugh and cry, and there are many places to think about after laughing.
Although the background of the story is somewhat bizarre, it reflects many social problems, the elderly living alone, not seen for a few days after the power outage, and are no longer alive;
The old man he met in the country, alone guarding the pig farm, prepared pajamas for his son's family, but waited for the uninvited guests of the Suzuki family.
This film was released in China in 2018, with a Douban score of 8.1 points, a movie worth watching carefully!
Life in addition to electricity and poetry and far away, I hope that we can maintain the dignity of life no matter what the circumstances!
