Synopsis:

There is an agricultural school on the island Hokkaido that is mostly attended by children from rural areas who want to continue their family business. Yugo is a boy who did not manage to enroll to a school of his choice and is now attending and living at the agricultural school, so he would not have to stay with his family. Since he grew up in the city he has no intention of working in agriculture and needs time to adapt to the new environment. The story gets complicated when he starts to envy his schoolmates because he still does not know what he wants to do with his life.
