@nutchan0731 Thanks very much. Saw your interesting video of a car ride through the vicinity. Are silk worms still being cultivated? Do you recognize the school and the river bank?

@nutchan0731 Sorry, I googled the above but cannot make out from the pictures where this film is localised. In the film it is said that it was taken in Kofu.

@nutchan0731 this is so interesting, emptying of town -- kudoka, as they say. in the video, after "Japanese farmers are very hard working people. Taro thinks he will not be a farmer" the movie switches to scenes about what kinds of jobs exist away from countryside : scientist, teacher, doctor, engineer, shipbuilder... "There are many things one might be in an industrial country like Japan." Taro's house and landscape so beautiful, and presumably he left to be one of those "many things."

There is no bustle of Kofu before any longer.
