Tone of Hope: Teizo's Broken Shakuhachi

貞蔵さんの割れた尺八~シベリア抑留1000日 命を紡いだ尺八と民謡~

Minyo is the traditional Japanese folk song based on daily life of local people and nature. Akita is said to be the treasure trove of minyo because more than 1000 minyo songs have been born there. It flourished in 1970s, but after the boom, the number of performers and fans has been decreasing. Also, COVID-19 gave another blow.
Teizo Fujimaru, from Akita, was the legendary player of shakuhachi, the traditional Japanese bamboo flute used in minyo. He survived the battle of Shumushu island and Siberian internment in the end of the second World War. Under harsh condition in Siberia, he continued playing shakuhachi to encourage his fellows. Why did Teizo take good care of his shakuhachi for more than 1000 days of extremely severe life? Yu Takahashi, a singer-songwriter from Akita, traces Teizo's life and thoughts.

The Leader

领导人

Corporate and organization leaders are said to be loners.
They also seem to be unapproachable.
However, we want to know more about them, about goals they set, and how they tackle difficult decisions.
“The Leader” features a leader each time, and the documentary reveals a side of them never seen in public. Topics are not limited to their confidence and pride. They talk about skills needed in leading an organization, how they maintain their health, their hobbies, what they read, their thoughts on child rearing, nostalgic locations, turning points in their lives, the follies of youth, and things they love with all their heart.

人们都说,企业和组织的社长永远都是孤独的。
每位社长都有难以接近的氛围。
但是,我们希望可以听到一直追寻新目标和作出重要决断的社长心声。
记录片【领导人】是一个每次以一位社长为中心,介绍社长日常生活真面孔的节目。
此节目是以一位代表节目【脸面】的高井美纪播音员,直接和社长见面一起去倍受关注的店,一起边吃饭边聊,或者在倍受关注的地方,悄悄地体验社长的兴趣爱好和聊天。主要交流听取各种各样的趣闻,比如以前作为公司员工时的秘密,人生的梦想,对公司和组织的思绪------,介绍不为人知的社长形象,描写企业和组织的魅力和未来。
