"Butoh: Body on the Edge of Crisis" is a visually striking film portrait shot on location in Japan with the participation of the major Butoh choreographers and their companies.

At the same time, it is a movement of resistance against the abandonment of traditional culture to a highly organized consumer-oriented society.
