Abstract:

On March 11, 2011, Japan's Tohoku coastal region was destroyed by a 9.0 magnitude earthquake and devastating tsunami. Pray For Japan focuses on the real-life heroes who fought on behalf of their loved ones and their hometown.

The film focuses on four key perspectives of the tragedy: school, shelter, family, and volunteers. We meet victims who faced significant obstacles and fought to overcome them. Through these four vantage points, the audience is able to understand the vast ramifications of the large-scale natural disaster‚ and the battle these real-life heroes fought (and continue to fight) on behalf of their loved ones and their hometown.
