[Released on DVD and digital, 2024, 6 hr] Each movie in the 2024 Releases is a different movie, and each is 7-32 hours long. And thus it is that once again we vanish to the imaginary country of Manchuria, which does not exist. And it is there nowhere that we see the Lost Ballet there on the great stage of darkness, as danced by the Emperor Taisho, who, as you have seen, carries one of the loyal 47 frogs that comprise his electrical entourage, right there on the mask in the middle of his face. That frog is also an emperor. An emperor known as Go Daigo, who once fled the ruined cherry blossoms of the mountains of Yoshino south of Kyoto, to wander the ocean by boat until finally arriving among the earthquakes of the American Southwest, where he established the Triple Zone of the Revised Republic. You cannot see this. PRODUCTION: The Telepathic Association, PARIS
