What The Burmese Harp is
You march through monsoon mud in a Japanese uniform, the war’s noise fading behind you, and then your unit vanishes from the radio. The jungle hums as you swap your rifle for robes to hide among monks. Kon Ichikawa’s camera watches the saffron folds swallow a rifle like a secret the wind won’t keep.
