Rikuzentakata (Japan), September 13th 2018. Sato Tomoko (73, from Rikuzentakata) poses for a portrait in front of the condo complex where she resides in Rikuzentakata.

The 2011 tsunami erased Rikuzentakata, destroying 582 out of its 600 houses. With the reconstruction, the familiar 1-storey houses were replaced with condo complex like the one in the photograph. Ms. Tomoko was elected by the residents as representative person for the house complex.
