Japan's most famous ghost story - Jeffrey Angles

Sobre este vídeo

Get to know the Japanese legend of Hōichi the earless, a monk summoned by a mysterious samurai to perform songs of past battles. -- Long ago, a temple was built near the site of a naval battle that concluded the long and gruesome conflict known as the Genpei Wars. For centuries after, performers throughout the country honored this tragic past in beautiful, haunting performances. But the most skilled storyteller of all was a monk from this very temple. Jeffrey Angles digs into the Japanese legend of Hōichi the earless. Lesson by Jeffrey Angles, directed by Masayoshi Nakamura, Good General. Music and sound design by Zak Engel.
