Abstract:

"Experience a breathtaking journey through some of the most beautiful gardens in the world. Renowned for their beauty, Japanese gardens have been retreats for people to rediscover the natural world and themselves for more than 1,000 years. Filmed on location in Japan, DREAM WINDOW reveals the secrets of both classical and contemporary Japanese gardens, including those of the legendary Moss Temple of Saiho-ji, Shugakuin and Katsura Imperial Villas, and Sogetsu Hall. Prominent Japanese cultural figures, such as Setsu Asakura, Makoto Ooka, and Yoshio Taniguchi, explore the role of gardens in Japanese society today."
