Mitsuaki Iwago's World “Cats” Travelogue
Shimane
S1 • E120 Dec 1, 2022 59m
Iwago photographs cats of Shimane in scenes that bring back memories. In a town leading to Iwami Ginzan, a registered World Heritage Site, he meets a cat who shows him around the town. In a port town overlooking Mt. Daisen, cats stroll leisurely along the cobblestones, and at the fishing port, the cats are given fresh horse mackerel. At a farm full of kittens, Iwago is reminded of the Yamata no Orochi as they enthusiastically eat their food. A climbing kiln is the perfect playground for a cat, while a cat living at a sake brewery has a job of patrolling. In the mountain village, you can feel the signs of autumn with the cats.
