Ruch and Norie

“Ruch and Norie” is a Latvian-produced documentary of a human interest story about two contrasting people striking up a surprising, emotional and spiritual relationship. Japanese student Norie travels to Latvia to study the Suiti community, where she meets Ruch, one of the oldest Suiti women. That changes Norie’s life forever and the close bond between them doesn't break even after her return to Japan. Norie thinks she has found her deceased grandma in Ruch. Meanwhile, Ruch worries about Norie and trembles at the news of every earthquake in Japan. The documentary "Ruch and Norie" shows us all that there are no borders to a genuine human relationship filled with laughter, caring and love.

12 young people will represent Canada on the
“The Ship for World Youth Leaders”  

The Ship for World Youth Leaders Program is operated by the Cabinet Office of the Government of Japan and involves young people from Japan and countries around the world. The participants board a ship, sail to other countries, live together, and while on board, they study and discuss common issues from a global perspective and participate in other various activities that involve multicultural and multinational exchange opportunities.

The Canadian participants will embark in January next year and travel to Japan, Fiji and New Zealand.
