Poster for 5-Meter Radius

5-Meter Radius

2021 · 1 season

Quietly observant and humane, it turns small everyday frustrations into gentle, resonant stories that linger.

Genres
Drama
Starring
Kyoko Yoshine, Hiromi Nagasaku, Katsuya Maiguma
Tagline
Revealing the lopsidedness of modern life
Overview
The uneasy, little snags in life. Why am I alone in parenting? Why is this strange man scolding me? They are personal, perhaps mundane, and never newsworthy. But one outlet for the nameless disquiet that exist within a "five-meter radius" is a weekly women's magazine. A young editor and an unorthodox veteran journalist cover every topic with an empathetic stance. A look at modern society through the small but real incongruities we all feel close to home.
