Just Visiting This Planet (1991)

Kazuo Ohno, a legendary Japanese Butoh dancer. He was born under the sign of the Horse. His motto: "If you can't make it, try! Always try! Do the impossible! Don't think!" Blixa Bargeld sings him two songs from Schubert's 'Winterreise'. Nina Hagen sings for him too, and Jonas Mekas: a Gypsy song, accompanied by the sound of a bell. Young Butoh-students dance in Ohno's studio, his kitchen. His son Yoshito and his wife Chie are fascinating in their powerful innocence. Kazuo Ohno brings hope in the chaos of this world. But sometimes "Be free!" is frightening.
