Ahead of 2020, Tokyo is upgrading its gateway on a grand scale.

2011年311大地震引發一連串大災難，當年的悲劇是否可以避免？福島第一核電廠在興建時，未有考慮當地發生海嘯的可能，亦因此沒有興建有足夠高度的保護牆。不過天災最終降臨，導致三個核反應堆爆炸，數以萬計的福島居民需要撤離，幾乎失去一切。2021年是福島核災第十週年，相關地區陸續完成清理工作，但願意返回原居地的災民卻寥寥可數，重建區域只能變成了無生氣的老人社區。

Elite Special Forces soldier Jason Fox served on multiple tours in Afghanistan, spending more than three years fighting in a war that saw some of the fiercest battles in modern British military history. Afghanistan both defined Jason as a soldier and made him the man he is today. He saw friends killed and seriously injured in combat and narrowly escaped death multiple times. This left him with a punishing personal legacy: PTSD. Because of this, Jason was discharged from the Special Forces and made to leave behind the life and job he loved.

Nearly a decade after leaving Afghanistan, Jason is returning on a very personal journey. Now he will seek to understand this complex country and the people he was sent to help, meeting old friends and former enemies, and ask whether the sacrifices are worth the traumatic legacy he, the Afghan people and many of his fellow soldiers have been left to endure.
