Shinto

Explore the rituals and ceremonies of Japan’s Shinto through interviews, archival and on-location footage. Shinto or “the way of the Kami” which loosely translated, means “god” or “the sacred” is rooted in mythology and folk rituals that are passed through the generations, yet unique in having no congressional worship, founder, or organizing doctrine. Learn how over the centuries these traditions have served to unify Japan nationality, and at other times, mobilized the country politically.
