Originally produced by Women Make Movies in 1989.
Description
A brilliant documentary about Hanayagi Genshu, a Japanese feminist and avant-garde dancer and performer, who has spent her life defying her conservative culture's contempt for independence and unconventionality. She denounced Emperor Hirohito as a war criminal, and dismissed death threats made against her by right-wing groups. "You mustn't be eaten by the kimono," says Genshu, making reference to the traditional Japanese dress designed to restrict movement for women, "You must eat the kimono, and gobble it up."
