This comedy-drama is partially a gentle satire on America's drive to change the world in the post-war years. One year after World War II, Captain Fisby is sent to the village of Tobiki in Okinawa to teach the people democracy.

They tell him about their culture and traditions -- and persuade him to build something they really want instead: a teahouse.
