This film screening will be followed by a panel discussion with the director and two Japanese guests - one HKS alumna who is running for office with a platform including support for families/moms, and another guest who has a research institute focused on this topic and related social issues. The film features many interviews in Japanese and includes thought-provoking perspectives about Japan.
Please note that this is a Harvard ID-only event.
