100 Years of Work in Japan
In 2021, we released a short film looking back on 100 years of work in Japan. Since the rise of the office worker (so-called “salaryman”), Japanese society has seen major shifts in the way people approach their work. Now, as society reaches a turning point, this film reflects on how work itself has evolved over the decades. Created with the hope of inspiring new ideas about the future of work, we invite viewers to consider where we’ve come from and what might be next.
