It's cool to see something as exotic ad these bon dances. Buddhist Japanese communities in Hawaii share their traditions openly with us. Productions levels are simple, documentary in style. Audio is difficult to understand at times.
A teenager explores an American-Japanese phenomenon - the Bon Dance. This exploration captures its pulsating music and dance and interviews Reverends, dancers, and an 89-year-old singer, a living treasure. It captures the high energy level of Bon Dances and the powerful visual images of 1,000 floating lanterns.
