It’s a story of art, rivalry and bloodlines. Japan’s megahit and Oscar hopeful "Kokuho" is coming to the French box office at Christmas. It follows the life of a man born the son of a yakuza boss who goes on to become a "living national treasure" in the hereditary world of kabuki, a centuries-old stage art performed only by men. Ahead of its French release, FRANCE 24’s Yuka Royer sits down with director Sang-il Lee.
