年に一回行われる、Boston日本祭り。
日本の文化を知り、堪能してもらうため、Bostonに住みつつ活躍している日本人達が議論に議論を重ね、毎年作り上げている。
ボランティアとして日本からも何名か、この祭りのためにBostonに来ている。
かたや日本に一度も行ったことがない、様々な人種が日本をイメージし、キャラクターのコスプレを施し、ここに集っている。
日本という国は外からはどのように見られているのだろうか。日本の何が愛されているんだろうか。日本のアイデンティティとは何なんだろうか。
まさしく、日本を伝えたい日本人と、日本が好きだけど日本を深く知らない海外勢との合わせ技。
共に持った志は、「祭りをEnjoyすること」
「日本」というキーワードで互いが奏でた空間を、初めて堪能してきた。
