From the Shadows – Documentary Examines Japanese Child Abduction


This film on Japanese child abduction was shown in Washington, D.C. on Monday November 7th, 2011 for members of Congress, invited by Chris Smith of New Jersey. The trailer at the link below is heart-wrenching. I  attended; I wish everyone could have the opportunity to see what has been done by these film makers, who interviewed a number of my fellow parents and victims of the Japanese state in the cause for establishing basic parents’ and children’s rights in Japan.  Push for a screening any way you can, and invite everyone you know.

From the Shadows Main

Japan is a safe haven for parental child abduction.
-Colin Jones, Professor Doshisa University Kyoto, Japan.
 
In Japan, the parent that has physical possession of the children is guaranteed legal custody. It is ‘finders keepers, losers weepers’ in its rawest and most cruel form.
-Jeremy Morley, International Family Attorney.
