Arranged (Omiai) marriages were possible only within a culture of obedience. Obedient sons and daughters chose to do what their parents wanted them to do, the needs of society being more important than the needs of the individual. Today, Omiai marriages are relatively rare, but they continue to occur among people who are concerned with inherited property and titles. A Changing Heart takes an intimate look at how the Japanese, in only a century, have come to adopt love as a rationale for marriage. By examining the changing roles of women, the shape of families, the impact of World War II, as well as industrialization and the decline of tradition, the film illustrates how and why the Japanese have accepted new attitudes toward dating, romantic love and marriage. A Changing Heart also addresses the social consequences of this evolution. As people struggle with the high expectations fueled by this newly love-obsessed culture, marriages occur less often, birthrates decline and the number of divorces grows. Women in particular are increasingly choosing the independence of professional careers over married life, and young men are facing unwanted bachelorhood. 001356076 521__ $$aFor College; Adult audiences. 001356076 546__ $$aThis edition in English. 001356076 650_0 $$aArranged marriage$$zJapan. 001356076 650_0 $$aMan-woman relationships$$zJapan. 001356076 650_0 $$aMarriage$$xSocial aspects$$zJapan. 001356076 655_7 $$aDocumentary films.$$2lcgft 001356076 7761_ $$cOriginal$$w(OCoLC)747798194 001356076 85640 $$uhttp://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?FLON;1650396 001356076 901__ $$aASP1650396/flon$$bVaAlASP$$c25433$$tbiblio 001356076 905__ $$uadmin 001356076 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1356076$$pGLOBAL_SET 001356076 944__ $$a1785032 001356076 945__ $$aThe Whole World 001356076 980__ $$aSTREAMING 001356076 980__ $$aBIB 001356076 982__ $$aStreaming Video 001356076 983__ $$aOnline
