'3 Years Past' is a documentary film about a group of teenagers who have spent all of their high school years in Fukushima. Their anticipated graduation from Junior High and entry into Senior High School was suddenly disrupted by an earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear accident three years ago. They are now entering an important juncture in their lives, graduating from High School and entering University. Some students see this as an opportunity to leave Fukushima for a fresh start elsewhere in Japan, while others have decided to stay near their families.

Through a series of interviews we have captured the experience of each student from their perspective. What was life like in their hometown in Fukushima before March 2011. What has their life been like the past 3 years, and how do they view their future in the next 3 years.
