#BOOK

Contributed to the pamphlet for the film “20.000 especies de abejas” a film that has a hook for many people.

Celeina:Ms.Minori, you have contributed words to various films, what kind of films have you dealt with recently?

Suzuki: I contributed to the pamphlet of the Spanish film “20.000 especies de abejas” and I also supervised some of the wording.

Celeina: What is the story of “20.000 especies de abejas”?

Suzuki: The film is set in the Basque Country in Spain and begins with a mother returning to her parents’ home with her three children for summer vacation. That youngest child is uncomfortable about his sexuality. However, the film is not only about the children, but also about the mother’s way of life, the grandmother, the various women in the family, the lives of the women living in the Basque Country, and the interactions between the siblings.

Celeina:That’s interesting. It is a human drama depicting various perspectives.

Suzuki: It depicts something that cannot be summed up in the word “transgender,” and I think it is a film that has something to offer to many people.

Celeina:You should check it out. Now, “FIST BUMP” is a circle of friends connected by the goo touch, and we are asking you to introduce us to your friends.

Suzuki: This is Ms. Ryoko Kuwabara, who is the chief editor of a web media called “NeoL”.

Takano: In a word?

Suzuki: A late-night family restaurant friend.

Takano: I would like to hear more about that tomorrow. Tomorrow, we welcome Ms. Ryoko Kuwahara, editor-in-chief of the culture web magazine “NeoL”.

Celeina: “FIST BUMP”, we welcomed writer Minori Suzuki today. Thank you very much.
