WELCOME TO OKINAWA

The world seen from the ring

An episode from the series WELCOME TO

Synopsis

Okinawa is renowned as the island with the longest life expectancy in the world and the birthplace of karate. This ancient art, passed down from master to student without ever having been written down, is inextricably linked to the archipelago’s identity.

Although it is now a universally recognized Olympic sport, here it retains its purest essence: the pursuit of balance between body and mind.

A lifelong quest.
