And one couple raise an infant with an incurable disability.
"Being Born (Umareru)" is a documentary film which captured the trials and joys of four families and their experiences surrounding "BIRTH" in their true colors over two years. One couple struggles to come to grips with becoming parents because of their own childhood experience with parental abuse and strife. A couple lose their child on the day of delivery, while another couple has accepted a childless life after struggling overcome infertility. And one couple raise an infant with an incurable disability.
This film will make you contemplate the meaning of being born, of being alive, and consider the bonds you have with your parents, your partner, your children, yourself and society.
[HIGHLIGHTS]
- The film takes a wide ranging look at life, including pregnancy and birth but also miscarriage, stillbirth, infertility, and disabilities.
- Parent child relationships and partnerships being empowered by pregnancy and birth are a major theme in the film.
- Men's role and position in pregnancy and birth are investigated (the director, the narrator and most of the crew are men).
- Rather than simply celebrating birth, the film helps the viewer reconsider their own fundamental ideas using birth as the catalyst, helping each viewer face their own issues and wash them away through tears and catharsis.
[MOTIVATION]
[MOTIVATION]
In an effort to reconcile with his parents, the director, Tomo, after learning film-making in Vancouver, Canada, began this project. He hadn't had a normal relationship with his biological parents, perhaps because his challenged brother required a lot of the limited time his parents had. He hadn't felt loved and acknowledged for a long time. When Tomo first heard the idea that the child chooses it's parents to help, to heal or to grow spiritually before he or she is born, he decided to face his destiny.
While working on "Being Born", he met over 100 families and couples and shot countless hours of footage over 2 years of production. Gratitude towards his parents sprang out and their relationship improved drastically.
Before production, Tomo was uninterested in marriage and having children. Yet, in the same month "Being Born" was released, his first daughter was born with the producer of the movie, and he enjoys raising his daughter wholeheartedly. Tomo feels that he himself has grown tremendously in the process of returning to the origin "Being Born."

映画『うまれる』上映会 【英語字幕付き】
2年に渡り4組の家族を追い続けた、魂のドキュメンタリー映画『うまれる』。命の原点を見つめることによって、私たちが産まれてきた意味や家族の絆、命の大切さ、人との繋がり、そして「生きる」ということを考える映画です。両親の不仲や虐待の経験から親になることに戸惑う夫婦、出産予定日に我が子を失った夫婦、子どもを望んだものの授からない人生を受け入れた夫婦、完治しない障害(18トリソミー)を持つ子を育てる夫婦、それぞれの軌跡を描きます。
映像クリエイターの豪田トモ監督は「子どもは親を選んで生まれてくる」という考え方と「胎内記憶」について触れたことをきっかけに、長年わだかまりのあった自身の親子関係を見つめ直すために映画製作をスタート。妊娠・出産だけではなく、流産・死産、不妊、障害、親子関係やパートナーシップ、男性の役割など、命が『うまれる』ことを着眼点に、それぞれの家族の葛藤や喜びをありのままに伝えています。

Lecture by Nanako Oba
“The things we learnt from once in a 1000 years disaster
– Children after the Great East Japan Earthquake 3.11”
3 and a half years have passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake of 3.11 2011. Still many people who lost their houses in affected area are forced to live in small temporally housings. Their houses are now under construction to raise the level 2 to 3 meters higher in order to prevent damage from TSUNAMI again. And it's said that it would take 5 more years for people to come back normal lives completely. The recovery and reconstruction process have still tremendous amount of difficulties to move on.
Nanako Oba, who is a director of Life & Birth Studies Association (a public interest incorporated association) in Japan, started supporting children & mothers in Kesennuma City just after the earthquake. Life & Birth Studies Association continually donates to 4 childcare institutions in Kesennuma City. Nanako also reports on the real life of Kesennuma’s children and their powerful resilience on NHK World Radio in 17 different languages each year on 11th March.
This time in Singapore, she will talk about her activities in areas affected by TSUNAMI, and what are the desperately-needed assistance for children & mothers. She will also share her passion and thoughts accumulated through engaging in making the film “Being Born”.
★Nurturing Future Generations Project
for East Japan 3 Prefectures (MIYAGI / FUKUSHIMA / IWATE) by Life & Birth Studies Association
“Nurturing Future Generations Project” is to raise children in the next generation (in 19 elementary schools, 13 junior high schools and 3 high schools in Kesennuma City) by providing educational program “Life & Birth Studies” and contraceptive-focused sex education by professional midwives.

『1000年に一度の学び～東日本大震災後の子ども達』
講師：大葉ナナコ
東日本大震災から、3年半。
被災地では、今なお仮設住宅で不便な暮らしを余儀なくされている方々が少なくありません。宮城県気仙沼の例では、津波被害を防ぐ為に住宅の地面を2～3m底上げ工事をしていることから、住民の方々が住宅に戻れるのが2018年と言われています。その間、四畳半二間の仮設住宅で、不安定な生活環境に身を置き続けなければならない方々の厳しい現状があります。
震災直後より、宮城県気仙沼市の母子・子ども支援プロジェクトに力を注いできた大葉ナナコ氏が、被災地の現状や活動の様子、映画『うまれる』の製作に携わってきた熱い想いを語ります。
大葉氏が代表を務める公益社団法人 誕生学協会では、気仙沼の児童関連施設４団体（教育委員会・健康増進母子支援センターすこやか・学童保育館・児童劇団うを座）への寄付を継続してきました。大葉氏は、毎年3月11日にNHK World Radio Japanより、気仙沼の子ども達のレジリエンス（精神的回復力）の様子を世界17か国語でレポートしています。
＜東日本復興3県 未来の大人育てプロジェクト＞
誕生学協会の『未来の大人育てプロジェクト』は、気仙沼市の小学校19校・中学13校・高校3校に通う「未来の大人たち」がしあわせな大人として将来、家族を築けるよう、望まぬ妊娠・虐待・孤立やうつによる自殺を防いでいけるよう、子ども達への誕生学教育や、助産師による避妊教育を届けるプロジェクトです。
宮城県を皮切りに、福島県、岩手県へと広がっていく未来の大人育てプロジェクト。
