Like executive producer Naomi Kawase said, the film could make a role to revitalising the local community, sustainable tourism and also make local feel happy with the film.
After director Naomi Kawase make a speech to open the Nara International Film Festival on the Red Carpet, The Ryukyu traditional dance is performed as part of the opening ceremony.
The ceremony was followed by a dedication through a celebratory dance by Ryukyu dancer "Shigeo Miyagi" (å®®åčé), which added an air of solemnity to the event.
Ryukyu is a dance form that developed from the courtly arts of the Ryukyu Kingdom and has been handed down through the generations to the present day. The influence of Noh, a traditional Japanese art form, can be glimpsed in its movements. This year also marks the 50th anniversary of Okinawa's return to Japan. The traditional dance from Ryukyu court reflects the hidden charm in Okinawa where was once a kingdom with unique culture and long history.
Nara International Film Festival started from 19 - 24 September 2022.
