Overview
Iwami Kagura is a traditional Japanese performing art that features dynamic dancing. A group won praise for its exceptional skills and secured an invite to an art festival in France. The performers were people with intellectual disabilities. Daisuke Oka plays a key role in the climax. He can express himself proudly in Kagura, but in daily life he finds it difficult to communicate with others. He wants to make his first overseas performance a turning point to break out of his shell. We follow his endeavor.
