Jun-Ai executive producer and lead actress Keiko Kobayashi visited Seattle on Saturday, March 16, attending the movie’s Seattle screening, which was hosted at the Nisei Veterans Hall. The screening attracted over 200 viewers.

The film was released in 2007 and has since been screened in five countries, including Japan, China, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Monaco. In Monaco, the film was featured in the Monaco film festival and won five awards.

The film, which includes Chinese, Japanese, and English subtitles, is part of the larger Jun-Ai project, which intends to unite the world closer together. Part of the proceeds of the film screenings goes to fund schools in China. (end)
