I dislike Jesus" (the original Japanese title) was

"I dislike Jesus" (the original Japanese title) was very interesting, especially the first half. This debut film is based on the director's first encounter with Christianity as a child in Japan, a country where only around 1% of the population is Christian. Most Japanophiles are particularly fascinated by religion in Japan. Japan has 2 main religions: Shintoism, the pagan or shamanistic, original religion, and Buddhism, which was introduced to the country in the 6th century. However, most Japanese people don't seem to differentiate between which of their traditions are Shinto or Buddhist. They appear to be very superstitious, but passive members of both religions. If you ever watched Scorsese's Silence (2016), you'll have been introduced to Christianity's unwelcome history in Japan, which explains why only 1 out of every 100 people are Christian. A personal example of this abstract data is that my Japanese ex-girlfriend also didn't really know anything about Jesus. When we went to Florence together and she wanted to see all the churches and museums, she didn't really have any context to understand the artwork or religious iconography. She spent her downtime reading all about Christianity and Jesus. To me, yesterday's film "Jesus" shows what most Japanese people will experience when they encounter this "foreign" religion, regardless of their age.
