The Japanese Island of Hokkaido

This weekend Rajan Datar’s in Hokkaido in Japan - looking at how, 150 years since the Japanese annexed the island, local indigenous culture has fused with traditions brought from the mainland. On his journey, Rajan meets the Ainu people for an introduction to hunting, flexes his muscles at a Mochi pounding contest, and puts his best foot forward for the island’s biggest international dance competition.
