Overview
Footage from dance therapy sessions held at Seinan Hospital, a psychiatric hospital in Hachinohe, Aomori. From around 1980, butoh dancer Ishii Mitsutaka began holding workshops there on the invitation of photographer Hanaga Mitsutoshi. Being based in Tokyo, Ishii could not visit often, and so he taught the patients by sending practice examples by video. Due to its setting as a psychiatric hospital, this performance was held only for those involved, and all props, costumes and makeup were done by Ishii along with hospital staff.
'Baroquekikizu' was credited as dance therapy event. Later however, the film 'Mettarohozu' was credited as a butoh therapy event.
