NHK Documentaries - Symbols of Revival: Tohoku's Cherry Trees

Seizoen: 2017 - Aflevering: 13 / 201 - Eerst uitgezonden: 11 maart 2017 - Episode ID: 1500805

Snow-bound and still impacted by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami, the people of Tohoku wait eagerly for that springtime symbol of hope and life: the blossoming of cherry trees. Northern Japan boasts many varieties of cherry trees and some very beloved ones -- a tree strong enough to grow through a boulder and another whose lineage stretches for a thousand years. Some of these trees are cared for by generations of the same families, people who know each bud on their trees and the best places to view the cherry blossoms.
