Aruku plot

For over nine centuries, thousands of travelers have visited the island of Shikoku to complete Japan's most famous pilgrimage: a nearly 1,200-kilometer journey past 88 temples, following in the footsteps of the Buddhist monk Kukai. In this meditative documentary, filmmaker Kataoka Shiho captures the story of four pilgrims who embarked on this introspective journey, offering viewers an intimate glimpse into their spiritual journey and personal motivations amidst the serene landscapes of Shikoku's natural landscape.
