Takashi Miike steps into the pages of history, taking the lives and legends of Kumamoto and bringing them to life in a series of short films done for the historical society of the region. With fantastic legends and moral collisions, mixed with sword slinging and 3-D battle sequences, Kumamoto Monogatari is another place for fans of Miike's films-and non Japanese audiences, a peek into both the pride of the Japanese and a window to the creative soul of their culture. Includes three stories; "The Tonkarin Dream Legend", "The Song of Sakimori" and "Women of The Revolt of the Clans". With removable English Subtitles!
