Wood Job 2014 is a hilarious and heartwarming comedy-drama about self-discovery and unexpected paths. After failing his college entrance exam, a lazy slacker named Yuki Hirano is not too concerned about his future. However, when his girlfriend Reina dumps him, Yuki decides he needs a change. He spots a forestry recruitment flyer featuring a beautiful girl, Masami Nagasawa, with the caption Come Work With Us. Motivated by her looks, Yuki impulsively signs up for the program. His decision forces him to travel to a remote town with zero cell phone coverage to undergo a grueling 30-day training course. If he passes, he must work as a trainee forester for an entire year in an even more isolated mountain wilderness. Can this unmotivated city boy survive the tough physical labor, extreme isolation, and dangerous demands of his new wood job?
