Toshiki Komazawa - A Small Life Worth Telling [NEW]

A travelogue of a rental car journey through countless "small towns" scattered across the United States, forgotten by progress and largely ignored by everyone except their residents.

——

While the nation and its victors run rampant,
if you venture just a little deeper into the country,
you'll find so many people who truly despise meaningless success and the collapse of ethics.
