During a practice run, he accidentally crashes into his first driver and loses his job. No other club in Europe would hire him as he is deemed too old for the sport. He has no choice but to return to Japan to his previous racing team. Unfortunately, the team now has a better and younger driver, and feels Jiro has nothing more to contribute to the team, and does not want him back. He returns home to stay with his father and sister, and found out his father has converted their home into an orphanage for unfortunate children whose parents are unable to take care of them. Tonomi Sensei (Koyuki), is a newly hired caregiver at the orphanage. She is not popular with the children as she does not seem to understand their feelings and makes misguided attempts to help them. Despite the fact that Jiro hates children and is more interested in getting back into racing then helping out at the orphanage, he nonetheless agrees to be the orphanage's driver in exchange for being allowed to live there. This is a family film that addresses lost bonds, adolescence, family and a number of other points. The audience would be similar to that of Rosanne and Tool Time. Written by Cattastrophe See less
