What We Do

Discovering hidden stories through the smallest clues

Six continents. Three oceans. Countless cultures and languages. Endless stories wait, undiscovered across the vast earth. Endless stories of people living life to the fullest, steeped in the history of their ancestors, striving for a better future for their children. These are the stories that reveal the culture, history, and life of the people. These are the stories that make the world a better place when discovered and told authentically.

Our job is to find these stories, hidden in the smallest corners of the world, waiting to be discovered and bring them to life carefully by building relationships based on trust, mutual understanding, and respect across cultures. We strive to preserve these stories as they are remembered and told, bringing them to life for the world to learn from and enjoy. By doing so, we contribute to a more tolerant world that appreciates the beauty of each culture.

Movie/ Film Production

Beneroots, LLC. is the one-stop solution for producing high quality videos. We provide detailed support in response to a wide variety of requests from domestic and international clients. We have a proven track record of hosting international crews from the BBC, National Geographic, and other international media for co-productions. We provide a wide range of production services with our excellent bilingual staff.

We guarantee high quality video production solutions based on our deep knowledge of culture and history, with the support of relationships built on trust; relationships that we have been building around Japan for decades.

In our experience, the "culture" of each country and region is the pride of the people living there, and is the very essence of their lives. Video and program productions that focus on "culture" require attention not only to the people and objects of the subject matter, but sometimes to the entire region as a whole.

We are able to work around strict budget constraints by providing one-stop services, including production, direction, remote-directing, and overall filming service with our reliable onsite staff in Japan.
