Fairly interesting documentary about the Japanese obsession with bugs, beetles and butterflies. Avoids the usual 'aren't foreigners funny' stereotypes and replaces them with baffling mysticism and slow motion out of focus shots of blurred stuff.
Doesn't really explain their attitude of reverence and respect for all life by catching and killing it.
Makes you ask yourself the question is there really any different between keeping giant beetles as pets instead of cats and dogs?
Yes, of course there is.
