Space-age skyscrapers and ancient temples sit side-by-side in the cities of Japan. In the countryside, high-tech bullet trains speed past rice paddies and untouched mountains. Although young people don't have the job security their parents did, they do have more freedom than ever before. They're choosing to work less, take longer holidays and spend more time with friends and family. Meet the people of Japan and learn about the diversity of their lives, from a radio presenter in Kyoto to a Buddhist monk in Nara.
