In Ramen Heads, Osamu Tomita, Japan's reigning king of ramen, takes us deep into his world, revealing every single step of his obsessive approach to creating the perfect soup and noodles, and his relentless search for the highest-quality ingredients.
Miwa is fired from her part-time job, sentenced to stay in Japan, and dumped by her boyfriend. She sets off on a trip to the Sea of Japan to find the truth, but her souvenirs are rather dull, including a rather rude female friend. This time she takes her younger brother Harumi with her to her home town. Together with Sawada, a classmate of Harumi's and a close friend of Miwa's, the three of them spend a summer holiday that takes them back to their childhood. However, when Miwa takes a picture of the place where her house used to be, when she plays pranks at the swimming pool, or when she catches a cold and falls asleep, she thinks about her father who suddenly disappeared one day.
