4 Years Ago Today: The Tsunami - Ishinomaki short video


It was 4 years ago today that over 20,000 people disappeared off the face of the earth in the Great Earthquake in Miyagi Prefecture on March 11, 2011.

 May all those whose lives were turned upside down in a few moments, find peace and happiness.

This is a short documentary film about Ishinomaki in Miyagi prefecture one of the hardest hit areas of the March 11, 2011 tsunami. It was made with my friends, Roger Marshall, Timo Budo, Ken Nishikawa and others who pitched in time and effort.

 This documentary deals with the city, the people and relief efforts completed by individuals living in Tokyo to send relief supplies to a center for disabled people in Ishinomaki.

Comments must be succinct & relevant to the story. Comments are checked frequently and abusive, rude or profane comments will be deleted. I’m just one of many bloggers who answer questions online and sometimes for the press. I usually handle questions about Japan, marketing or the economy, so in those areas I’m more likely to make sense and less likely to say something really stupid. If I post something here that you find helpful or interesting, that’s wonderful. This is my personal blog. If you don't like what you have read here then, just like when you go into a restaurant or bar that allows smoking, if you don't like it, there's something at the front that has hinges on it and it is called a "door."
