Abstract:

"A powerful, sensuous exploration of one man's resistance to the development of a tourist park in a pristine fishing village. The resister, lumberjack Tatsuo, maintains a mystical and sensual relationship with the nature spirit that the community is willing to sacrifice for the economic prosperity that the development would bring. Based upon actual events." (Shibata Organization, 1985; Karl-Lorimar Video, Irvine, CA). With Kinya Kitaoji, Kiwako Taichi, Ryota Nakamoto.
