The executive committee produced the special video Eisa Dondon to commemorate the 65th anniversary of the Okinawa All Island Eisa Festival in order to convey the charm of this event.
This is a human drama that depicts the growth of a youth group aiming to participate in the Okinawa All Island Eisa Festival and their family ties. It conveys the history and charm of the festival and also depicts the essence of what Eisa is.
