Whispers of Fukushima . . . . whenever there is the possibility to watch this movie . . . . . .watch it . . . . it is worth it . . .
Dear Toko,
it´s been quite a while since I saw this film of yours. My small personal life turned upside down since then, a lot happened in my life . . . . but I still remember the thoughts I had when you invited us to see your movie. The main thought was . . . Do I really want to confront my self with one of the biggest catastrophes in human history. . . . do I really wanna go to this dark place. Well this movie turned out to do a miracle. In spite of the facts being shown . . . I felt lighthearted.
This movie really touched my heart. Mainly because of the music but most of all because of the incredible huge ” YES” that shines through. It`s about love for live . . . and you succeeded in finding the people who found this “Yes” who found this love for live while facing death.
Your movie is just a proof for the transforming power of the heart . . . . whatever happens . . . . my heart will go on . . . . and it has the ability to transform even a tombstone into a butterfly. This movie is about loss, . . . and what bigger loss can there be than loosing the place you are used to call your home . . . . ?
There is only one bigger loss possible . . . if you have lost access to your heart . . . .this . . . you seem to know.
All the people in your movie found their hearts again . . . and finding your heart means you find music. The music that dwells in each single heart . . .and thisn music is very sweet and tender. It doesn’t shout . . . it whispers . . . like the whispers of Fukushima. I want to thank you again for this movie. . . . . for staying positive . . . . for seeing the world with your heart.
Up to now I did not know, that it is possible for a Japanese woman to become a samurai. Seems the times are changing finally. Samurai of the heart . . . . That is, what is needed in Amerika right now. Looking from the heart and allowing oneness to happen . . . . instead of looking from the mind . . . and going into separation and control. . .
May be they/we can open up to listen. . . . . . . . and may be we will end up in utter gratitude for mother earth, who still carries us after all we did to her . . . . i know she cant help . . . because we are her children . . . . . but nevertheless gratitude would be a new and rarely used approach . . . let`s surprise mother earth with this approach . . . your film shows us the way . . . . like an empty boat on the surface of an American lake in a full moon night. It whispers . . . like the whispers of Fukushima. I want to thank you again for this movie. . . . . for staying positive . . . . for seeing the world with your heart.
