Film summary Approximately 10 hours flight from Tokyo, Finland is the closest European country from Japan. “Kamome Diner” was shot and born there. Known for its midnight sun, Helsinki is a seaport in which seagulls fly and passenger liners come and go. Small, but with presence, Kamome Diner—run by Japanese woman Sachie—stands in the city’s street corner. The film unfolds at this diner, while highlighting people who are more than eager to give a hand to each other’s vital soul.
