Seigetsu was greatly influenced by Matsuo Basho of Narrow Road to the Interior fame, and followed what Basho upheld as a lifestyle “making travel one’s abode.” He wrote over 1800 haiku and left them with households who hosted him. Filmmaker Kitamura Minao who embodies an extraordinary empathy to Seigetsu takes off on a journey in the poet’s footsteps, with the accompaniment of the remarkable dancer Tanaka Min.
