Dive into the Japanese myth of the shapeshifting tanuki, as the raccoonlike creature rewards a traveling salesman for his kindness. On the dusty roads of a small village, a traveling salesman was having difficulty selling his wares. As he wandered the outskirts of town in the hopes of finding some new customers, he heard a highpitched yelp coming from the edge of the forest. Following the screams to their source, he discovered a trapped tanuki. Iseult Gillespie details the Japanese myth of the shapeshifting creature. Lesson by Iseult Gillespie, directed by Anna Samo.
