The Exquisite Short Films Of Kihachiro Kawamoto (DVD) This collection of short films is from one of the worlds greatest stop-motion animators: Kihachiro Kawamoto. Famous for his beautiful, expressive puppets, Kawamoto began his career in the 1950s. Honing his skills at the legendary Kratky Studios in Prague (under the mentorship of celebrated Czech animator Jiri Trnka), Kawamoto harnessed Japans unique aesthetic traditions to create visually stunning stories. Drawing on ancient legends, contemporary short novels, as well as Noh, Kabuki, and Bunraku doll theater, Kawamotos haunting, poetic films speak of passion and loss in worlds populated by ghosts and demons. All films are in Japanese with optional English subtitles, unless otherwise noted. The Breaking of Branches Is Forbidden (1968, Color, 14 min.) A monk orders a young acolyte, who happens to have a fondness for sake, to guard a beautiful cherry blossom tree. The Demon (1972, Color, 8 min.) A pair of hunters encounter a ghastly demon in the woods. Escaping by severing the apparitions arm, they make an even more grisly discovery on the journey home. Based on the 12th-century Japanese medieval legend Konjaku-monogatari. An Anthropo-Cynical Farce (1970, B&W, 8 min., in French with optional English subtitles) A dog race is interrupted by a ringmaster who attaches fish to the animals collars and makes them run in circles. The crowd becomes incensed and the ringmaster finds himself in a race for his life. The Trip (1973, Color, 12 min.) A young girl sets off on a surreal metaphysical voyage through which she will learn all the pain and joy of life. A Poets Life (1974, Color, 19 min.)
