Description
Yuzuke, Japan, 2013. This old man will have worked all his life in the shipyard of Onomichi, a port city located on the shores of the Seto Inland Sea. Japan is facing a serious labor shortage. Employers are unable to hire and, with the unemployment rate at only 2.8%, there are few job seekers. Few immigrants, too. And, because of the declining birth rate, there aren't enough young people to replace old ones retiring. In Japan, it is normal for workers to have a job until they are in their 70s.
