À propos de ce film

John Kaizan Neptune was a young California surfer when he discovered the shakuhachi, a traditional Japanese bamboo flute, which changed his life forever. As an outsider in 1970s Japan, he dived into tradition headfirst and blew open the potential of this ancient instrument in a way no-one had before. Directed by his son, this inside story delves deep into the life of an artist and the price he paid to cross cultural borders and become a pivotal figure in the evolution of this rare art form.
