DVD I ripped as I could find no substantial information on Bunraku. Hopefully, this can help someone learn or whatever. More info below.
Info from DVD:
"Bunraku, the classical Japanese puppet art, uses three-quarter life-sized figures, handled by black-clothed manipulators who remain in plain view of the audience, convention rendering them invisible.
This documentary traces Bunraku from the making of the puppets and the way in which their limbs are articulated, to their costuming and use in performance. With relfections on the relationship of Bunraku to Kabuki theater.
This DVD include performances of works for Bunraku.
Commentary by the late well-known authority on dance and Asian arts, Faubion Bowers.
