Yokichi, the son of a farmer, cried out to his father, "Why don't you ask the Shogun to dam the river on Abushima?" Next, the levee on the northern end was about to break, and Yokichi worked with the adults as a laborer to help out. As the flood control work progressed, the levee on the opposite bank broke and the water on Takasuwa Naka's side receded, but Kosuke, the grandson of the elder, lost his entire family in the flood. The following spring, large-scale flood control work began, and Yokichi and Kosuke bravely set out to work, but what would happen next? Commentary"Senbon Matsubara - Boys Living with the River" is a work that depicts the story of the Horeki Flood Control Project, Satsuma samurai, and boys. It is a video drama that depicts the relationship between water and the Japanese people, and is set in Gifu Prefecture, where the three rivers of Kiso, Nagara, and Ibi, which are rich in water, meet. The symbol of this work is the "Senbon Matsubara" where beautiful pine trees stand in a row. In the past, these three rivers often flooded, attacking villages and engulfing fields and houses. Farmers protected themselves from floods by building banks called "waju". In the third year of the Horeki era, the shogunate ordered the Shimazu family of the Satsuma domain to carry out a difficult flood control project at the Satsuma domain's labor and expense. The project was completed a year and a half later, and it has been passed down to future generations as the "Horeki Flood Control Project." "Senbon Matsubara" depicts the "Abushima Sequestering Embankment," the most difficult part of the project. The film is directed by Tetsu Dezaki, who also directed the TV anime "Captain," and the opening theme song "Mukashi Monogatari" is performed by the famous actor Hisaya Morishige. cast
