　本作は、イギリス⼈を⽗に、⽇本⼈を⺟に持ち、⽇本の公⽴⼩学校に通った山崎エマ監督が、海外⽣活を送る中で気づかされた“⾃分の強み”は“⽇本⼈ゆえ”であり、遡ればそれは、公⽴⼩学校で過ごした時間に由来するのではないかとの思いに⾄り、「⼩学校を撮りたいと思った」ところからスタートした。

This film is about director Ema Yamazaki, who is the son of a British and Japanese mother and who attended a public elementary school in Japan, about her ``own strengths'' that were temporarily protected while living overseas. "It's Japanese." Going back, I thought that this stemmed from the time I spent at a public elementary school, and I started from the idea that I wanted to photograph elementary schools.

　コロナ禍の2021年４⽉から１年、150⽇、700時間（監督の⼩学校滞在時間は4,000時間）にわたって撮影を⾏った。主に１年⽣と６年⽣を追った映像には、⽣き⽣きと学校⽣活を送る⼦どもたちの姿と、コロナ禍で困難な時期の教育に悩みながら⼦どもたちと真摯に向き合う教師たちの姿が収められている。

We continued filming for 1 year, 150 days, and 700 hours (the director spent 4,000 hours at the elementary school) starting in April 2021 during the coronavirus pandemic. The video shows mothers and children living lively lives at school, as well as teachers who are seriously working with their children while worrying about providing education during this difficult time due to the coronavirus pandemic.

(From my own experience, there is definitely a lot of discipline in elementary school. It puts a heavy burden on the teachers, but it is a place where you can learn the basic attitude of a human being. A treasure.確かに私の経験から規律の中で先生方の負担は大きい。でもとても大切な人間としての基本的姿勢は宝物ですね✨✨✨)
