Rokkoku Kitchen

Overview

National Route 6, or ‘Rokkoku,’ runs from Tokyo to Miyagi via Chiba, Ibaraki, and Fukushima prefectures. After the nuclear incident, residents were forced to evacuate from some areas. The film turns its camera on daily life and ways of living in towns along the Rokkoku—such as Okuma, Futaba, and Minamisoma—approaching the subject through the lens of food.
