Stories of Japan, far away from Tôkyô and Osaka

 
Japan would not be as facinating as it is if it was only for Tôkyô and Osaka. Former members of the JET* program who have lived in the provinces for several years will present a charming Japan, off the beaten track, through the tale of their own experiences and animations.

Organized by CLAIR Paris

*The JET program proposes to young foreigners to live in Japan for one to three years as coordinators for international exchanges, or as language assistants in schools.
