Nikkei Nambei-jin

[Fujioka Asako]

A belated response to Nikkei Nambei-jin question. There is a Japanese
documentary called Burajiru no tsuchini ikite (dir. Okamura Jun / 1991? /
152 min), a portrait of a Japanese Meiji-born couple who migrated to Brazil
in their youth and have remained all their lives. I think the director lives
in Sao Paulo?
