Summary: Set in Japan with a Japanese cast, this remake of the 1964 film explores the same themes of birth, life, death, and the answers to mankind's most probing questions. Annotations: This version of the film was done for the World's Fair Expo in Japan by the regular BYU Motion Picture Studio crew, marking a monumental decision on the Church's part to create a film for a specific national market outside the United States. Despite the language barrier the film was finished promptly and according to the crew's desires, and the film was considered a great success at the Expo, especially since Japan is not a predominantly Christian country. BYU/ LDs Motion Picture Studio Production #0789. Medium: 16mm color Film Editor: Frank S. Wise Cinematographer: Robert Stum Country: Japan/USA; shot entirely in former Language: Japanese Distributor: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
