Where We Call Home - Season 4 - Eps 11: Bridging Cultural Gaps in Work and Life
This time, we visit Shimane Prefecture to meet Vietnamese Pham Van Toi, the president of an agency that finds employment for his fellow countrymen and women who wish to work in Japan. Toi also helps them get used to life in Japan and overcome linguistic and cultural barriers. We join Toi as he organizes a soccer event to bring the Vietnamese and Japanese communities closer. We also follow French-born Sophie Lekens for a day in her work in public relations for an arts center in Aoyama, Tokyo.
