Plot Summary
The story follows the exploits of an unnamed salaryman, who spends his spare time exploring and wandering around the suburbs in which he lives. Accompanied at times by his wife or dog, it takes a gentle look at life – contemplating nature, talking to people he meets and finding simple pleasures in the things he finds on his travels. There is no plot to speak of – and very little dialogue – just a series of largely unconnected observational episodes.
