Brief Explanation

-We depict 38 University of Tokyo students taking a Mother’s Day test, then calling their mothers to ask the answers and reacting to some of their unexpected replies. -We had participants take the test without knowledge of the plan’s contents, and recorded their real reactions and comments in a documentary-style video. *No direction was given to participants.
