Obachan's Garden Report

  Obachan’s Garden by Linda Ohama


1) Linda Ohama’s grandmother was 100 years old when Linda discovered her secret.


2) There was a picture marriage in Canada and she was looking for someone to marry. So she decided to move to Canada.


3) Linda’s grandmother, Asayo, had two children in Japan before emigrating to Canada. She told nothing about her two children to her children born in Canada.


4) Obachan plays violin well and dances well. Also she loves gardening. From those things, I can infer that she is bright and has many friends.


5) She felt alone in Canada so she went to her friend’s house frequently and played. That makes children do housework from early ages and they felt loneliness because of the absence of their mother,


6) The moment when she knew that there was a bombing in Hiroshima and the city has completely destroyed. She grabbed the violin and run to the place where there was no one. She played the violin, cried, worried about her family in Hiroshima. Throughout the movie, she was kind and positive and that was the first time she impressed her emotion. 


7) I will choose to make a film about my mother. She has an experience of studying in Spain and I don’t know much about that. So I will make a film of her studying abroad.


I will just put on the answer only here. If I need to put questions as well, please let me know!
