The sixth episode of the drama series "Angel Flight" starring Ryoko Yonekura will be broadcast on NHK General TV from 10:00 pm on June 7th. The subtitle of the episode is "Mother's Last Journey". Rinko (Honoka Matsumoto) receives the news of her mother Touko (Tamiyo Kusakari)'s death from far away Bolivia in South America...
With only a short time left to live, Touko secretly goes on a world trip, visiting places that are full of memories for her, without telling her daughter.
Rinko and Nami (Ryoko Yonekura) head to a remote village in Bolivia to transport the body of her mother to Japan. While handling the repatriation of her mother, Rinko finds herself thinking about the bond between mother and daughter that she thought she had lost long ago.
This work is a dramatization of "Angel Flight: International Funeral Home Specialist" by Ryoko Sasa, winner of the 10th Kaiko Takeshi Non-Fiction Award. It depicts the activities of international funeral home specialists who transport the bodies of Japanese people who died overseas back to Japan, and foreigners who died in Japan back to their home countries. Yonekura plays Izawa Nami, a strong-willed single mother and company president.
In addition to Yonekura, Matsumoto, Yu Shirota, Yuma Yamoto, Kayo Noro, Yu Tokui, Tamiyo Kusakari, Osamu Mukai, and Kenichi Endo will appear in the drama. The drama was re-edited from the work distributed on Amazon Prime Video in 2024 and was broadcast on NHK BS and BS Premium 4K for the first time.
