The tiger and the guitar

The tiger and the guitar

The Way of the Samurai Guitarist Yoichiro Yamada, a Japanese man captivated by flamenco, left everything behind to become a guitarist in Spain. Living two decades there—many years homeless—he refused to return home, believing he had failed his mission. Guided by a deep sense of honor and passion, his life became a poetic tragedy. This documentary retraces his journey, exploring the bond between flamenco and identity, the meaning of artistic devotion, and how Yamada’s spirit lives on through his guitars and legacy.
