Director Statement

A beautiful sea and an island of tourism, Okinawa in Japan.
Historic heritage of the World Heritage Ryukyu Dynasty, forest area “Yambaru” which became a national park in Japan,
Performing arts such as Ryukyu dance is also wonderful.
But what I should not forget is the voiceless voice from those who live in Okinawa.
