Interview with Rock & Roll Bar owner in Minamisōma

[nubero]

Hey
I just posted my second interview in my "Life after the Tohoku Earthquake" series.

I did the interview with Kenji Shida who owns a bar in Minamisōma. Minamisōma is located so close to the Fukishima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant that parts of the town are inside the 20km safety zone.

From the description of the movie:

After the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear accident in northeast Japan (Tohoku) in 2011, I – like many others – read all the news I could find. The one thing that struck me was how politically biased all the information was, especially when it had to do with the Fukushima power plant.

This is the reason I started the Life after the Tohoku Earthquake project: I want people that think they have something to say about the catastrophe and how it relates to them, to tell me their story. Those people don't have to be victims, they don't even need to live in Japan.

Thanks, but this is a forum, not an ad space. Please share a bit more info about your interview, otherwise i have to treat it as a cheap shot at promoting your page.

Thank you very much for your friendly tone of voice and your assumptions. I would have embeded the video here but vimeo seems unsupported.

Edit:
It really bugs me you know. I do my best alongside a full time job to scrape enough money together to travel – literally – around half the globe to Japan; enter a radioactively contaminated area and convince people to do interviews with me.

For what?

So I can share them with the world in forums like this. Make the voice of the people I interviewed be heard. I do this at my own expense. I receive no money, and have no sponsors. I Only mentioned the camera company my friend works at because he lend me the new model to film, since my order didn't arrive in time. And yes. My order. I bought that thing – even if it arrived too late – for the full price.
I spend around 5000$ in travel expenses and camera equipment to do this film. I did research. I had to convince people to help me with all sorts of things for free.

And then I get greeted by a complete and utter Idiot who – instead of using his experience as admin and write me a short private message to remind me of best practice – thinks he needs to openly reply to me with a stupid comment.

What the bloody hell do you mean cheap shot at promoting my page anyway? Do you see anything on sale on my page? No you don't because there isn't.

Ich bin richtig enttäuscht Thomas. Das kotzt mich so was von an, das glaubst Du gar nicht.

nubeero, welcome to JREF, and may I ask you please calm down?

I saw your initial post and thomas' reply earlier - yours was only two lines (w/o any video or link):

He asked you politely

Please share a bit more info about your interview,

The part you complained about ( i have to treat it as a cheap shot at promoting your page. ) comes after the above request and "otherwise".You
You later seem to have added more information, then why don't you wait for his and other members comments first?
What you wrote seem to be false accusation, I'm afraid.

My first post had a link. The edit should have one too but that appears to be lost as well.
On your other things I won't comment. This is already too silly.

When I saw your post before it was modified, there was no link.
I believe that any members cannot post direct links until the number of posts reaches certain numbers.
