Chotto wa, Darazu ni 2014 / ちょっとは、ダラズに。 2014 /

26-year-old single mother Wakamizu Maho is a nurse who works in Tokyo. Following the example of her mother who was also a nurse and brought her up single-handedly, Maho works conscientiously in her job, housework and child raising. However, her 6-year-old daughter Aika has a tendency to get sick and Maho keeps inconveniencing her colleagues at the hospital. She wants to do everything to perfection but worries about caring for Aika as well as her job every day. Then one day, Maho learns about the generous assistance for working mothers at a university hospital in Yonago City in Tottori Prefecture. In an act of desperation, she comes to Yonago City where she has neither family nor relations. However, this is a town which is completely opposite from Maho’s intention to live properly. Its people are all ‟darazumon‟. They are daring, like challenges, and enjoy life.
