April Movie Sharing Session--Our Earth ,Our Home

Started from 5th of April, Kajang Buddhist Center Youth Section organizes movie sharing session throughout the month.For April, our theme is --Our Earth,Our Home.This month, movie shown will base on the environment issues and the way to raise our awareness towards our nature.

On the 5th April, we had shown the movie Fireflies : River of the Light(Hotaru no hoshi)
It is a Japanese movie directed by Hiroshi Sugawara.

"Hotaru no Hoshi" is quite a wonderful film. It is a warm story about a young teacher who has some good ideas about teaching, but he finds himself up against Japan's regimented and conservative school system.

As a class project he decides to raise Hotaru (fireflies). Through the project his students become united and end up cleaning up a local river so the fireflies will have a home.

After the show, Sis Chiew Kok had a small sharing and discussion with us.Everybody voiced out their opinion about the environment and the importance of it.

It seems that, fireflies is a common bugs for the adult during their childhood time.But for us....it is rare.So for the coming generation, as a part of the nature, we should protect our environment.
