In a mountain town in Kochi Prefecture, a photographer has taken funeral portraits of the area's older adults for over 10 years. Bringing friendship, he strives to keep them smiling.

When his father passed away, Nakanishi Mitsuo hastily selected a photo from a family album to use as a "funeral portrait." However, he was unhappy it didn't properly reflect his father's true personality. Nakanishi, the owner of a photo studio in a mountain town in Kochi Prefecture, vowed to help others avoid a similar situation. Bringing humor and friendship to his area's older adults, Nakanishi captures their natural smiles and genuine expressions and has to date photographed over 700 people.
