Official Message from Sade!! After the devastating impact of the 2011 Great Eastern Japan earthquake there was a huge outpouring of generosity from people around the world, and major reconstruction projects were set in motion to help the people of the Tohoku region. Sadly though many of the most vulnerable are still greatly in need of help, especially the children who have been emotionally and psychologically traumatised by the tsunami and Fukushima nuclear disaster. In an attempt to raise awareness of the needs of these children we were approached by filmmaker/artist Gregory Rood with the idea of combining the talents of some of the greatest Japanese anime artists and international musicians with the hope of raising funds for El Sistema, a visionary global movement that transforms the lives of children through the healing power of music. We were eager to be involved and offered our song “By Your Side’ as it expresses a feeling of love and solidarity. We are delighted to be collaborating on this film with Tsuneo Goda, creator of Domo and Komaneko, and the award winning Stop Motion Animation filmmakers at Dwarf. The film will be released on March 11, 2014, the third anniversary of the earthquake. Please give generously to El Sistema.
