Together with Paykar, you will learn how the Ainu language has survived, why their writing is so special, and why their ancient customs are full of respect for nature.
And also - you will meet an extraordinary man from Lithuania, Bronisław Pilsudski, who more than a hundred years ago photographed the Ainu, recorded their voices and conveyed their stories to the world.
