MVIFF: THE MAKING OF A JAPANESE

Followed by a pre-recorded zoom discussion with director Ema Ryan Yamazaki

From the Oscar-nominated short comes the full-length feature The Making of a Japanese, an intimate portrait of childhood inside a Tokyo public school. Over the course of a year, 1st and 6th graders navigate daily routines and small dramas while learning discipline, empathy, and community, finding the balance between individualism and being respectful toward others.

“The Making of a Japanese” is an intimate chronicle of a turbulent year defined by the strictures of the coronavirus pandemic.” – Japan Times
