The Screen Guide

This documentary pierces the mystery and the mystique of a dance movement adored by the West and largely ignored by the Japanese. It uses archival and contemporary footage of leading Butoh performers and interviews with Butoh specialists to throw light on the essential Butoh themes of darkness, violence and eroticism.
