Overview
The first documentary film produced by Gilyak Amagasaki to commemorate 30 years of his street performances. At the time Gilyak had damaged the cartilage in his knee, and was uncertain how long he would be able to continue dancing for. He created the film so that others might watch his dances in the future, with recordings of nine of his performances including 'Jongara Ichidai' and 'Nenriki'. Along with footage from his performances in Sapporo and Kyoto, the film includes autobiographical elements, with scenes of his hometown Hakodate. Produced, directed and starring Gilyak Amagasaki, 1998, colour film (70min).
