\u201cKechigan\u201d what\u2019s now in Tohoku, our home land.
\nA documentary of the road trip for Tohoku volunteer and dedication of a painting for local festival.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Horien\u2160 is dedicating a tattoo motif painting for Mandou Mikoshi, Toda city in Saitama every year.
\nThe chief of Toda-mutsu, Mr.Enomoto said \u201cLet\u2019s paint a picture of Tohoku\u2019s local festival!\u201d
\nI was moved by the idea and start working on it right after I heard this.<\/p>\n

The painting was designed following these festivals in Tohoku area, Nebuta festival in Aomori, Toramai in Iwate, Tanabata festival in Miyagi and Souma Umaoi festival from Fukushima.
\nThey put these paintings on portable shrine and people carried it around the town for praying for the recovery from the Tohoku great earthquake.
\nHoriren\u2160 thought she wants to dedicate these pictures to the local shrines and temples in Tohoku by herself.<\/p>\n

It is the great film footage of her road trip, shoot by herself, to show Tohoku\u2018s Today.<\/p>\n

On that day you can see the messanger from above coming down all the way from Iwate, it takes over 20 hours for round trip!!
\nPlease spread this Hakozaki-Toramai!<\/strong>
\nI believe the sound of clapping hands will save the town.

\nRise from the mud! Hakozaki-Toramai!<\/strong>
\nThere is a town Hakozaki shore line of Iwate.
\nAnd there is this sacred dance called \u201cToramai\u201d.
\nThere is a man who made this Toramai by his own.
\n\u201cI\u2019m gonna change this boring town!\u201d
\nHe screamed when he was 24 years old, and he made it. Now he is 65 years old. He changed this town with the sacred dance.
\nThis dance is about to spread into the world,
\nHowever, here comes the cruelty of this world.
\nTsunami, the black blade washed away every proud they had, their houses, jobs, family and the festival.
\nNow they are living under the temporally dwellings.
\nMr. Arayais the Oyabun(a chief) of Toramai.
\nHe was in the deepest grief of this tragedy and he said \u201cIt\u2019s like living hell here.\u201d
\nI couldn\u2019t stop myself and yelled to him,
\n\u201cPlease show this Toramai in Tokyo!\u201d
\nMr. Araya dropped his head down and said,
\n\u201cWhat..? We have nothing. We lost a lot of things, not only people, but we lost the costumes and drums, and everything.. I have to go into the mouning for next one year.\u201d
\nSince 90% of his lofe was dedicated to Toramai, his feelings of loss is great, I know.
\nBut, it\u2019s not for him! If you are tiger you have to roar!
\nI proposed him so many times, but every time I asked, he turned down.
\nThey need 30 people at least to do Toramai, but it\u2019s Tsunami took away those people, no equipment.
\nIt takes more than 10 hours by bus to come to Tokyo.
\nPeople finally start to go fishing and busy, so on and on.
\nAnd finally, I got a phone call! They are coming!
\nThey dig up the costumes and equipment from mud and remake the Mask and washing those costumes under freezing sky. They are coming to Tokyo!!
\nIf the stain of mud is still there, the skin of the drum is loose, not enough people, I still admire them. I think they are really cool!
\nBut they got a life to live so it\u2019s going to be one day trip..What??
\nThe come all the way to Tokyo for only a few minutes?
\nI couldn\u2019t stop crying.
\nIt is the resurrection of Hakozaki-Toramai of Iwate in Tokyo.
\nLet\u2019s cerebrate it together!!
\nI know if we cerebrate and witness the sacred dance of the messenger from the above and those Samurais of Hakozaki in Tokyo, There will be a great Toramai festival next year.
\nOnce Mr. Araya\u2019s sprit got lit, he will make it better!
\nIt\u2019s still not perfect, but it will summon the real dragon next year in Hakozaki.
\nPlease come and check this out!
\nI believe the sound of clapping hands will save the town.<\/div>\n
