Film series "JUN AI

Introduction - Message from the Founder

Many people may not yet be aware of this film and its artistic movement. Since its release in 2007, the "JUN AI" film series has been exchanged in Japan, China, Korea, and around the world for 18 years, and has now developed into a social art movement in which everyone can participate.

The goal of this film is to connect the world as one, starting from the love of each person, transcending all differences. The purpose of this social art movement is not to treat films as "contents or commercial products," but to utilize films as a "driving force" to connect people and contribute to the development of humanity.

This movement, which began in Japan and is now spreading to other parts of the world, is designed to connect people with those who have been touched by films. We are convinced that the time has come to make this movement, which is quietly and quietly but surely nurturing the power to change society, widely known to everyone.

This press release is our first attempt to communicate our activities and true intentions.

The latest "earthrise edition" of JUN AI can be viewed at the YouTube link.

Background and intention of the YouTube release

JUN AI Movie & Movement (General Planning: NPO Jun-Ai International Peace Foundation) regards the year 2025 as "the beginning of global change", and for three weeks from March 11, the memorial of the Great East Japan Earthquake, JUN AI's latest "earthrise edition" was first shown on YouTube. The latest version of JUN AI "earthrise edition" was released on YouTube for the first time in three weeks from March 11, 2011.

Despite being distributed on a channel with less than 500 subscribers, the film received 20,000 views, 14,000 viewers, and 4,400 hours of total viewing time, showing that the film was indeed moving people's hearts.

In response to the response, the decision was made to officially release the Japanese version of the film. An action program called "Earth Day to Peace Day" (April 22 to September 21) was launched. During this period, we aim to achieve 1 million views on YouTube and to release a multilingual subtitled version*, including an English subtitled version, in order to develop a movement to connect with people around the world.

This initiative is also part of the co-creation project for the final version of the series, "Jun-Ai Mirai Hen," which is currently in production. The actual chain of emotions and human connections that are being created will be added to the final script to complete the entire film.

*The Japanese subtitled version of the film is mainly available on YouTube. A multilingual subtitled version will be available on vimeo, a video platform for creators (as the same link can be used to improve the video and subtitles).

JUN AI's latest "earthrise edition" will be available on YouTube.

The key visual at the beginning of the "earthrise edition" of JUN AI on YouTube is the historical photograph "Earthrise (Earth rising from the moon)" taken by the Apollo 8 mission from the moon in 1968.

This material is licensed for general use by NASA.

This photo was the first time humans gazed at the Earth from the outside.

The shining blue Earth rising beyond the lunar horizon reminded us of our irreplaceable "one planet" that transcends borders and conflicts.

Fifteen months after Earthrise, this great human realization gave birth to the world's first environmental movement, "Earth Day," and led to the awakening of global consciousness, which continues to spread even today.

Now, JUN AI Movie & Movement inherits the spirit of Earthrise and calls for the "awakening of consciousness as a global citizen" through films.

The latest version of JUN AI "Earthrise Edition" vividly conveys the message that all people living on the earth are united by one bond on earth that transcends all differences.
