This video I filmed and edited will need some explaining. It was part of a video series presented as part of an original opera entitled "Opera(tion) World Peace by Brian Clay Luedloff and Russell Guyver about the story of George Ohsawa, founder of macrobiotics, and his meeting with Dr. Albert Schweitzer in Lambaréné, Gabon, French West Africa circa 1955.
In this portion of the opera Ohsawa has made himself sick to prove that he can heal himself with the proper diet. This video is played in conjunction with Ohsawa generally lying sick on the stage. The first half shows Schweitzer, Emma (his nurse and assistant) and Adelle (an African Native also an assistant) looking over Ohsawa as they assume the worse. But this video also goes through the various stages of Ohsawa's hallucinations, cause by the illness, of Emma and Schweitzer dancing as well as his assumption that Emma and Schweitzer are trying to kill him.
The Opera was directed by Brian and music composed by Russell. Thanks guys for letting me be a part of it! I just had to post it cause it was great fun!
