Three Families in Japan
Three families, from different regions and social
backgrounds, provide insight into life in Japan. The first
family lives in Fujinomiya and the father is employed in the
automobile industry. The second family are farmers,
residing in northern Japan, where some of the country's
finest rice is grown. The last family lives "the good life" in
Fukuoka. Post-war Japan was based on growth,
employment, social advancement and technological
innovation. Japan has lost some of its international
influence to other Asian countries, such as China.
Approximately 30 years ago, there was very little difference
between economic classes, now cracks are starting to
appear. The three families reveal what it means to maintain
their standard of living.
