1h 16m

lnari sets out on a journey to discover the meaning of Kotodama, delving into Japanese art and calligraphy, while following the routes of the Camino de Santiago, in Spain, and the Shikoku Henro, in Japan. On his way, the action of walking and the calligraphic line reveal themselves to be the expressions of a same idea: the way as a process. Pilgrims, monks, artisans and calligraphers become the voices of a universal history, creating a bridge between the past and the present, East and West.
