    nostalgic beauty

    The story of Doug Rogers . Training, living and learning together with his Japaneses mates, having as dream to be a very good judoka , having the best master.

    The perspective about judo represents the main virtue of film.

    The second - the image.

    Not the last, the comentary, especialy the last minutes conclusion.

    A film about determination, ambition, profound option , some regrets and a sort of serein happiness.

    A simple story, splendid crafted, defined , not only for its half of century age, by a precious nostalgic beauty.
