One summer day, the priest of the Hojuuin Temple dies. As soon as he hears the news, Harumichi returns to town and organizes a grand funeral. He was never willing to take over the family business and had chosen a life as a high school teacher, far from home, but given the circumstances, he changes his mind. As the new head of the Hojuuin Temple, Harumichi struggles, day after day, for donations as a means of subsistence. He tries to lead a regulated existence, without excesses, until the day he passes by a bicycle racing track. The vibrant sound of the audience takes you to a new way of life.
