Year 2000: A story about 11 children from the graduating class at Sakura Moto Nursery, their teacher, and their parents. The kindergarten’s motto is to raise the children to have a multi-cultural mindset, and the children are from 5 different countries and cultures. To raise the children devoid of prejudice, they hold friendly camps with children from other kindergartens. The Japanese teacher, in the meantime, reflects on her own life through the stories of the children’s parents who live as minorities in the Japanese society. The parents, children, and the teacher try to find a way to live together by opening their hearts. Although it may partially be due to long hours of working together, nevertheless the camera and the children seem quite intimate. Watching the children as they play in front of the camera, one hopes that they will be able to grow up in a world devoid of hatred. (Hong Hyosook)
