イーハトーブ幻想 Kenjiの春
This special presents a unique biographical sketch of the life of the great modern Japanese poet Kenji Miyazawa. It is a highly stylized and intense film that draws on Miyazawa's own writing techniques to tell his life story.
Miyazawa often used animals as the main characters in his stories and poems. Director Shoji Kawamori employs this same technique to recreate Miyazawa's fanciful, imagined land of Ihatov, using it as the symbolic backdrop against which the poet's life unfolds.
