"All the art of living lies in a fine mingling of letting go and holding on." --Havelock Ellis
Phone of the Wind
"'Hello. If you're out there, please listen to me.' On a hill overlooking the ocean in Otsuchi Town in northeastern Japan is a phone booth known as the 'Telephone of the Wind.' It is connected to nowhere, but people come to 'call' family members lost during the tsunami of the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. Many visit the phone booth including a mother and 3 children who have lost their father. This documentary looks at the unique role that this phone is playing in helping the grieving process of many.
BE THE CHANGE
Think of someone you have lost in your own life. Consider what words you might speak to the through the "Telephone of the Wind."
