Seizo and Yukihiko Tashima are popular comic book writers who work independently of each other. Seizo, the younger of these twin brothers, has written a book about their common
childhood in the country on which this film is loosely based. One late summer day, Seizo visits
his brother's atelier. The two artists are to work on a new book together. It will be based on
the idyllic childhood they spent in a tiny, rural village. Their drawings sweep us back to 1948,
to a hamlet in the countryside of Kochi. The twins are in third grade; they love to draw but are
also known as infamous brats in the neighbourhood for the pranks they play. They grapple with
catfish in the river, chase birds in the woods, and slash vegetables stalks in neighbour's fields.
