The Voice of Bamboo

The Voice of Bamboo follows Keiji, an elderly immigrant bamboo farmer, as he meditates on his symbiotic, lifelong relationship with bamboo. After fleeing from a post-World War II Japan, Keiji and his wife Stefani devoted themselves to recreating their own slice of Japan in the lush mountains of Western North Carolina. Now, over 35 years later, he is a master bamboo craftsman, steward, and musician. And he is more committed than ever on his quest to learn — and heal — from the mysterious plant that has become his mentor.
