Armand and Michaela Denis on Safari to Asia: The Oyster and the Pearl

BBC Television
on BBC Television

At Nara, ancient capital of Japan, Armand and Michaela Denis photographed a curious and exciting annual ritual, the dehorning of the sacred deer.
They also filmed the massive Juggernaut-like floats, the central feature of the Spectacular Gion festival; and this last programme sees them complete the strange story of the cultured pearls of Japan - the 'tears of the Moon'.
