We were given access in ways no film in Japan has come close to on our topic and we are about to bring into the world the first…
1. We will be the first feature length film to talk about mental health awareness and rights for children living in institutional care in Japan
2. We will be the first feature length documentary to showcase “the outdoors” as therapy for children living in institutional care in Japan
3. We will be the first feature length documentary to not only discuss but show a rare look into the lives of children living in institutional care in Japan and what they do and don't have.
4. We will be the first feature length film to show the reality of what happens when youth age out of the system at 18 years old in Japan
5. We will be the first full-length feature to follow someone from life inside institutional care all the way through to living life on their own and what it looks like from both sides.
This is the biggest ask I have ever made to any of you and it’s a real ask that will make a real difference in the lives of thousands of children here in Japan. Please consider supporting us.
love,
Matt
