Synopsis
In Japan, natural hot springs where you can bathe outdoors are considered to be sacred places. Visited even by gods, these hot springs are counted among Japan’s most hallowed sites.
Lucille Reyboz has traveled to Japan several times a year over the past five years to capture those special moments where the body abandons itself and merges into the natural world.
In Tokyo, the quest for Nature even inspires city-dwellers to recreate artificial hot springs that become a refuge from urban chaos. With grace and sensibility, this widely acclaimed young photographer takes us on a voyage beyond time in a Japan that is secret and modest, and bathed in a strange and enchanting atmosphere in this tribute to nature and the female body.
