Boy Was Running In The Field

Shot in the isle of Hatoma, Okinawa.

Although this island had only about 50 inhabitants, there was an elementary school. When I came to the school ground, I found a boy running. The ground was vast and it could be comfortable to run around under the spreading sky.

I thought the number of the pupils was small. And the pupils had to go out from this island when they entered a junior high school because there were not any junior high schools on this small island. It could be incredibly painful to live away from home at a young age.
