"The Miracle of the Gifted Quarter -Life’s Truth Revealed-" （2007）100mins
〜 You are fine just the way you are 〜
Why are people imperfect?
A documentary film centered on Katsuko Yamamoto, a teacher at a special-needs school, unfolding the true importance of life.
A debut film for Fumiko Irie.
First released in 2007, it has spread across 18 different countries around the world.
Second released film directed by Fumiko Irie. Noriko Terada, a color therapist, and Shisui Teshigawara, a healing artist, were working hard in hopes of bringing joy to many people’s lives.
Suddenly, Noriko loses her right eye from a disease, and receives a life expectancy sentence. A film focusing on the true meaning of life, despite how fragile it can be, and how these two managed to get through and live a fulfilling life.
A film about a devastated boy who lost both of his hands due to an accident, meeting Junkyo Oishi, who had also lost both hands. He would eventually find his way because of Junyo’s saying “Even if I could be born again, I would still want to be myself without both my hands”
Fumiko Irie’s third released film.

Message from Fumiko Irie
Since I first started making films in 2006, as the films started to spread in to the world, I have been able to go through many great experiences.
What felt the most amazing was the fact that people who resonated with my work wanted to help so the films can reach more and more people.
The chain reaction of the message being passed on from one person to another, feels so genuine and wonderful.
Because of these films I was able to witness the beauty of how people connect through resonating with each other’s ideas and inspiring one another.
In 2021, I think the whole world is sharing the same theme. One of them being how people are getting separated, both physically and mentally.
It is hard to know what really is the truth, and I started to feel there are a lot of people who feel the same uncertainty. It may be hard to listen to even our own thoughts and voices inside.
If any of these films or projects can help even one person,regain hope and make new connections with people who resonate with the same message, I am truly grateful.
For my first film that was released in 2007, the release date was in February 11th.
So I decided to put all three of my films out there for everyone to see as a gift share (for free) , as an exclusive release for 4 days starting from February 11th, 2021.
This project that the people around me help build together, is also my dream.
It would be a pleasure for you to watch these films and share it with the special people in your life.
With all the love,
Fumiko Irie
