Okinawa under the occupation of occupation that Taro Okamoto witnessed

In 1959, Taro Okamoto visited Okinawa under the United States.As soon as I arrive, I will be drawn into Okinawa as soon as I arrive.When I noticed, I was close to the opponent who attracted me, and was crazy about cutting the shutter.
Taro was so impressed because I saw Okinawa’s “forgotten Japan”.There were Japan, which had been pushed by modern Japanese, and the lost Japan.
“This is ourselves, Japan itself.”Taro discovered Japan in Okinawa and found himself.He saw the Japanese and his own source to the Okinawans who live clearly.The experience at this time will later crystal to “Okinawa Cultural theory”.
Taro, who was obsessed with Okinawa, got off in Okinawa again in 1966.It was to see the ritual Isaiho, a woman only once in 12 years.Including this magical ritual, which cannot be seen now, Taro has a variety of Okinawan expressions in the film.
“Okinawa” taken by Taro has the origin of Japan and Japanese.It is a valuable historical material and one and only cultural heritage.Here is the “Japan” that everyone should face.
