“Rain falls in the mountain, Dancing on the ground Forming a small stream of water A mischievous bear runs by the stream. Silently he looks down at the water, And wonders if there is a fish…” This film was made as one of the “Nihon no Uta” (Songs of Japan) projects. The project aims to breathe new life into Japanese nursery songs and school songs, and pass them on to future generations.
