0 - 100 years in Japan

100 Japanese people, from baby to 100 year-old. In April 2023 I visited Japan and shot this version of the 0-100 year project mostly in Tokyo. Contrary to how I usually work, I did not hit the streets to randomly approach people to ask them to participate. Japan asked for a more formal approach, contacting people through several networks of local assistants and enthusiasts who were so kind to help out. The result is this lovely series.

The fact that the voices of the elderly are so clearly heard is astonishing

[@alvarogill]

Even older people still look young. We can see why the Japanese people live longer than others 😊

Wow. The older people in this video have lived through so, so many things. Truly admirable.

90歳以上が全員女性なのが現状を物語っている。

25くらいから自分の年齢を言いたくなくて顔死んでるのに、50くらいから吹っ切れてまた笑顔の人が増えるの面白い

[@tomygun196]

idk why im tearing up as the video goes to the older age. Life is precious, live and enjoy as much as you can.

Amazing people and culture!! They are so polite!! I'm from Malaysia and we, as part of the Rotary Club was hosting some young Japanese traveller. I recall his name was Takeuchi. We all had dinner at a restaurant when unfortunately the subject of WWII inadvertently came up. Our guest Takeuchi-san stood up, bowed his head and with sadness and remorse apologized to us for Japanese atrocities in Malaya and the world during WWII. We were so surprised and taken aback. There was stunned silence... Then he sat down and we all smiled and continued our dinner in a happy but respectful mood. Takeuchi-san, wherever you are, all the best.

Rad video. I love these. It teaches you that life is fleeting. Imagine if you saw a video of yourself at 100 and each one of the years was yourself! Life is precious.

92歳の人若すぎでしょ、凄いな

[@kitkitcat268]

honestly videos like these put me at ease. Getting old sounds scary, but seeing how much I still have ahead of me is a little comforting. I wanna live until a 100, have kids and grandkids and do my best to give them the best childhood. <3

This makes me emotional 😢❤

[@JJMClark]

Love this!

[@guzwud]

their smiles are so contagious, i just instantaneously smile when i see especially the older people smile its wholesome

[@PlanetYokoshima]

This is a beautiful realization that we're all the same and we keep coming and going. I just love people even more now. I don't know how to explain this feeling... there are so many of us in this world, but none of us is a special with the world revolving around them. This helps me realize what I really want to be before I turn that old and probably helpless.

[@yoochim]

Wow!! This is amazing

It's so cool seeing so many different people, all with different levels of experience, ranging from literally being born yesterday, to having seen events that have shifted the entire world itself. It's beautiful, honestly :]
