TOKYO (AP) — The women work hard, sleeping only a few hours a night, as they
juggle the demands of caring for their children and doing housework — all while
suffering from poverty.

The award-winning independent documentary film “The Ones Left Behind,” released
last year, tells the story of such single mothers in Japan, weaving together
interviews with the women and experts, and showing the other side of a culture
whose ideal is for women to get married and become stay-at-home housewives and
mothers.

“This is a topic that no one wants to really touch. In Japan, it’s very taboo,”
Australian filmmaker Rionne McAvoy said Tuesday. “I think it’s a very apt title
because I feel that single mothers and their children have really been left
behind in society.”

One woman in the film says she works from 8:30 a.m. until 7:30 p.m., while
earning less than 200,000 yen ($1,350) a month. That’s sparse for a nation where
the cost of living is relatively high, with monthly rent in cities easily taking
up a third or half of that, for a tiny room.

Tomiko Nakayama, another woman in the film, says: “I have to do everything on my
own.”

Despite being one of the world’s richest nations, Japan has one of the highest
rates of child poverty among the world’s wealthy countries, with one in every
seven children living in poverty. About half of single-parent households live
below the poverty line.



Japanese society also tends to favor full-time male workers, and women often
receive lower wages and fewer benefits, even when they are working full-time and
overtime.

Another woman in the film is near tears as she describes how her child stopped
asking her about take-your-parent-to-school days. She knew her mom was too busy
and couldn’t attend.

McAvoy’s wife, Ayuri, who produced the film, was formerly a single mother. But
both deny that’s why Rionne McAvoy made the film. Initially, she wasn’t
interested in getting involved in his filmmaking.



What makes the story so “Japanese,” according to Rionne McAvoy, is how the
country’s conformist culture makes many women accept their hardships, too
ashamed to ask for help, “keeping their public face and private face separate,”
he told The Associated Press.

“The Ones Left Behind” was the Best Documentary Winner at the Miyakojima Charity
International Film Festival last year and an official selection at the Yokohama
International Film Festival.

Despite repeated promises by the Japanese government to provide monetary
assistance to people with children, action has been slow, said Akihiko Kato, a
professor at Meiji University who appears in the film.

That’s partly why the birth rate is crashing in Japan from 1.2 million births in
the year 2000 to below 700,000 today. Japan also lacks a system that can force
fathers to pay child support, according to Kato.

In the past, grandparents, neighbors and other members of the extended family
helped look after children. In the modern age of the nuclear family, the
single-parent household is often on its own.

What this means for the children is sobering, said Yanfei Zhou, a social science
professor at Japan Women’s University who appears in the film. The gap between
the haves and have-nots is growing, and the children are destined to inherit the
cycle of poverty, she said.




The story of the underclass, including those who are forgotten and don’t have a
voice, has long fascinated McAvoy. His next film will be about young people
driven to suicide in Japan. He said that being an outsider allows him to tell
stories with a fresh perspective and without bias.

“It’s one thing we can do more of in society: to try recognize people’s cries
for help,” McAvoy said.
