For this episode we have the lovely Felicity from Australia who is currently living in Kyoto join us to share with us their experiences as a filmmaker and their unique experiences of living in Japan!
During 2020, Tiffany met Felicity in an online filmmakers community event where they connected and have gotten to collaborate since. Tiffany begins by asking how Felicity found herself in Japan and started her journey as a filmmaker. We learn that Felicity first lived in Wakayama prefecture, and this connects to Felicity's experience living in the “Koya san” with Japanese Monks for seven months where she shares the behind the scenes such as the misconceptions of living as a Monk, the expectations, the reality of working at a temple, the drama, and so on. The conversation continues to cover the rural countryside lifestyle in Japan, Felicity’s filmmaker projects, what she has learnt from “culture kids” which refers to people who grow up in a country that is not the passport of their parents and her thoughts on identity and belongingness. Moreover, Felicity is currently working on a new project which involves a tiktok series called “disconnected” a musical with the theme of technology and how it both can bring us close together yet create misunderstandings. Lastely, we get to hear Tiffany and Felicity discuss the Kyoto photoshoot that was taken in November and the wonderful locations they visited in Kyoto.
