The Tokyo English Life Line and Aoyama Gakuin University are proud to present a screening of the documentary film “Hafu,” which addresses issues related to being a mixed-race Japanese in present-day Japan. Interweaving five unique life stories narrated by bicultural people of various ages, the film guides viewers through accounts of a variety of experiences that are influenced by upbringing, family relationships, education, and physical appearance.
