Japan and the Gods

BBC One
on BBC One London

One atomic bomb, and the Divine Mikado is a God no longer. To replace him, 350 new religions have sprung up in Japan since the war.
Tonight's film gives an impression of these religions - from hypnotic dance rituals to humble asceticism.
English commentary by Rene Cutforth.
