Documentary about the tumultuous life of Japanese-American zen monk Henry Mitowa. Delves into Henry Mitow as a person using documentary footage along with varied techniques including animation and drama vignettes. Born in 1918 in Yokohama, Henry traveled to the US on his own in 1940 and spent the war years incarcerated in Japanese-American internment camps. In 1961 he returned to Japan, where he endured the chaos of the era while cultivating his talents through the tea ceremony, ceramics, and writing. Old age didn't bring the carefree life one might have expected. (Source: JFDB) ~~ Release dates: Aug 26, 2016 (Festival) || Sep 2, 2017 (Cinema) Edit Translation
