Sweet potatoes are a winter tradition. The setting is a traditional sweet potato shop in Ibaraki, a sweet potato-producing region. Many people come to enjoy the sweet potatoes, which are slowly roasted until they are hot and sticky with syrup. Some send roasted sweet potatoes as a return gift for year-end gifts. A mother buys them as a reward to motivate her daughter. A newlywed couple, who find joy in their ordinary life, share a single roasted sweet potato together. In this winter when daily life has changed drastically, what are people seeking beyond the warmth? We listen for three days.
