We now live in Sacramento, California and will be moving back to her hometown in a few months to live in Japan. <br /><br />We saw Aaron's film during the Sacramento Japanese Film Festival, July 2011 and were completely 'BLOWN AWAY'. <br /><br />My wife happens to be Japanese and I happen to be African American and I have to say that we actually walked out of the theater walking on clouds. We have never seen a film that captures the spirit of Japan as well as this one has. We were also amazed at how so <br />'un-apologetically' it portrayed a romantic relationship between a Japanese lady and African American man. <br /><br />My wife has told me several times since we saw this film how she is so happy that Japanese women are now able to be seen as human beings who are able to choose who they love instead of being stereotyped. WOW! I have never seen her get so moved by a film. <br /><br />We both are very excited to see what is next for Aaron Woolfolk. <br /><br />We have also made sure to let all of our friends know about his film.<br /><br />Keep up the 'FANTASTIC' movie making Aaron!<br /><br />Jesse and Junko RhodesJessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06317373957803215088noreply@blogger.com
