story VS: Japan

Description

For his live multi-vision, the successful photographer and lecture speaker Marcus Haid travels to Japan, fulfilling a childhood dream and discovering that despite his many travels around the globe, he has never encountered such an independent and foreign culture.
Deeply rooted in ancient traditions and at the same time at the forefront of modern technology of the 21st century. Shinto shrines in modern shopping centers, geishas and tea ceremonies alongside loud and crazy youth culture.
A country where as a Western visitor you are constantly confronted with seemingly familiar impressions, only to realize upon closer inspection that it is something uniquely Japanese. A country that forces you to abandon many of your own concepts and truly open yourself to new impressions.
As a traveler, he repeatedly finds it surprising how many clichés turn out to be actual reality and collects refreshingly many wonderful new experiences and impressions.
His modern adventure journey takes him over many weeks and thousands of kilometers from the lush jungle island Yakushima in the south through Kyushu and the main island Honshu with its urban centers up to the north on the island of Hokkaido, characterized by pristine nature and national parks.
A colorful kaleidoscope of tradition and modernity, gigantic metropolises and untouched nature, human encounters, culinary experiences, myth and reality form a fascinating portrait of Japan's unknown beauty.
