二○一一年三月十一日,東日本大地震奪去無數條人命、無數個家園。然而因人為因素而加劇的災情也令各界議論紛紛,其中,核能安全問題更引發了全日本強大的輿論關注及頻繁的抗議行動浪潮。
 
福島核電廠爆炸事件之後,外洩的輻射通過空氣、地層、和海流影響了整個日本,即使在災區重建、表面上回到軌道之後,在空氣、食品中仍存在著許多肉眼看不見的危險。該如何重整目前對核能公司有利的經濟體系、如何讓媒體擺脫財團控制、重拾正義良心,種種議題成了導演岩井俊二與他的朋友間積極探討的話題。
 
自二○一一年六月九日起,他與幾位朋友籌辦每月一次的「69之會」反核餐會,邀請老朋友、新朋友參與核能議題的討論;更以這部紀錄片號召日本知名演藝界人士與專家學者,探討為何在綠能科技發達的日本,仍需仰賴危險的核能發電。出生於日本東北災區仙台市的他,帶領年輕一代反核運動份子回到受海嘯與輻射重創的災區,片尾的一場樂團街頭演說更是振奮人心。
 
The dual tragedy of the East Japan Earthquake on March 11th, 2011 made countless people lost their homes and loved ones, yet the consequential accident at the Fukushima Nuclear Reactor caused a greater threat. With the nuclear meltdown, the pressure control pool explosion, and the coolant leakage, radiation was spread through the air, ground, and seas to pollute the entirety of Japan. And with a huge increase in people speaking out against nuclear energy, demonstrations have been occurring all over Japan.
 
Director IWAI Shunji, born in Sendai city of Miyagi prefecture, started a dinner party with some actor and journalist friends on June 9th, 2011 “in order to properly learn about Nuclear Power”. This was the start of “Rokku no Kai”. Discussing about nuclear power with other new friends at this once-a-month gathering, the idea came to director IWAI, “I want to capture and bring them together to these encounters.” And it was from this thought that Friends After 3.11 came to be.
 
It was only after the incident at the Fukushima Nuclear Reactor that we Japanese became fully aware of the horrors of nuclear power. Amidst this depressing reality, we portray the persistent and ever-diligent efforts of specialists, scientists, and journalists. Director IWAI also travelled to the aftermath in Miyagi prefecture along with anti-nuclear idol, FUJINAMI Kokoro. Seeing the true devastation up on the screen, and listening to the genuine words of these “friends”, it is in these conversations, we hope to find the next step towards Japan’s future.
