The Miyagi prefecture, road 38; through the areas of Watari Town and Yamamoto Town.
Converting this road into a fictional train, I attempt to see the disastrous remains of the car on the railway track, to overcome the difficulty to face up to the reality of the great damage of the tsunami. It's a landscape from Watari to Isohama Fishing Port.
