Giappone, dai samurai ai manga

Directed by Gabriele Cipollitti

With Alberto Angela and Yoichi Takahashi

Let’s explore Japan. A journey to a country so far away yet one that holds a growing fascination for so many Italians. The legendary tradition of the samurai, the heroes of manga and anime with whom generations of young people have grown up, the highly refined cuisine, cutting-edge technology, the delicacy of cherry blossoms, the horror of kamikaze attacks and seppuku, and the natural disasters from which to defend oneself. A narrative of the many facets of a complex, millennia-old civilization, where opposites converge to give rise to a culture unique in the world.
