The Film
人々が頻繁に世界中を移動する時代となり、日本でもますます人々の移動が盛んになっています。そして、その日本には、両親のどちらかが外国人という人々が多く存在するようになりました。中には外見的に目立つ人もいれば、全く目立たない人もいます。ドキュメンタリー作品『ハーフ』は、このようなハーフたちの複雑な心境や、現代の日本での多文化的な経験を通して、発見の旅へと導きます。本作品は、５人の「ハーフ」たちがかつて単一民族と言われてきた国において、多文化・多人種であるとは、どういうことなのかを探求する日々を追います。ハーフたちの中には日本しか知らない人たちもいれば、日本での生活は全くの未知の世界という人たちもおり、その二つの異なる世界の狭間で生きている人たちもいます。
