Every autumn, people from across Japan flock to a large observation area about 1,600 meters above sea level in the mountainous village of Achi, Nagano Prefecture. The picture-postcard views include forests of vibrant autumn leaves, starry skies and a sea of clouds. Many visitors arrive in the wee hours so they can reach the summit and watch the morning sunrise above the horizon - often making a wish as the new day dawns. For 3 days, we asked people why they come here and what is going through their minds as they soak up the views.

Amusement Facility at Twilight in Amagasaki

The setting is a little-known amusement facility in Amagasaki City, Hyogo Prefecture. With billiards and table tennis available from 100 yen for 30 minutes, the facility is bustling with customers day and night. During the day, you'll see elderly people returning from shopping, groups of middle-aged and older adults sweating it out at table tennis, and at night, young people quietly enjoying games. Some reminisce about their youth, others try to distract themselves from loneliness, and still others cherish the time spent with their families... This program delves into the amusement facility where various lives intersect.
