J-Film | Flower and Sword
Presented by the Japan Information & Culture Center, Embassy of Japan and The Japan Commerce Association of Washington D.C.
Our next J-Film is the historical comedy The Flower and The Sword.
Set in the 16th century, this film captures the Warring States Period but not from the eyes of a samurai or politician but through the traditional art of ikebana, Japanese flower arrangement.
Ikenobo Senko (NOMURA Mansai) is a monk and master flower arranger who captures the heart of historical leaders like Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Demonstrating little interest in political power, Senko simply feels joy in showing the beauty of flowers.
However, before long, Hideyoshi begins a brutal purge. Senko is forced to face how he can challenge Hideyoshi and restore peace to society.
In Japanese with English Subs | Japan | June 2017 | Not Rated | 127 min | Comedy, Historical, Feature | Directed by SHINOHARA Tetsuo
