What happens

3.11 A Sense of Home Films is a 2011 anthology film. Following the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011, Naomi Kawase, executive director of the Nara International Film Festival, contacted numerous directors and artists to create short films, each 3 minutes and 11 seconds in length, for a planned anthology.
