Cinema Kabuki: RENJISHI & RAKUDA (Double Feature)
In the double feature, Cinema Kabuki: RENJISHI & RAKUDA, you’ll enjoy two films starring one of the best kabuki actors ever, Nakamura Kanzaburo. In RENJISHI you’ll watch as Kanzaburo and his sons, Kankuro and Shichinosuke, enact the famous lion dance that explores the relationship between father and sons (like Lion King but more epic). In RAKUDA, Kanzaburo stars in a black comedy about rent and death.
