Document 72 Hours - Season 7 Episode 3 Sapporo: Bus Terminal on Holy Night
Sapporo, a big city, is celebrating Christmas. The express bus terminal that serves as the gateway to the city is the setting for this episode. Long-distance buses connect Sapporo with towns scattered throughout Hokkaido. Many people use the buses from early morning to late at night because of the reasonable fares. A young man takes the bus for five hours to spend Christmas Eve with his girlfriend. A woman commutes to her parents' house hundreds of kilometers away to take care of her aging parents. There is also a busy businessman who takes a night bus for a business trip. We spent three days at the terminal in the middle of winter, listening to the circumstances of each traveler.
