Details
Japan, XXth century. Haru, a wandering musician who plays the shamisen – a traditional Japanese instrument – becomes famous because of the way her art and the beauty of her singing touch the local people's hearts. During her travels, she manages to charm a kappa, one of Japan's most famous yōkai, who gives her the key to the divine dimension. When she takes to the road again, Haru goes on to meet the emblematic protagonists of Japanese mythology and folklore.
This tale – directly inspired by the life of the famous goze Haru Kobayashi (1900–2005) – delves into the themes of beauty and freedom through art, as well as the power of folk music in shaping Japanese cultural identity.
