Kagamijishi (1936) is a documentary short Yasujiro Ozu made for the Japanese government about traditional Japanese dance for foreign distribution. The first part is an introduction with narration and is filmed in Ozu's own style, with low angles, cuts across axis etc.; the second, largest part is an extended excerpt from a performance with multiple cameras.
