The Crane Maiden

Sponsored by the Japanese Business Society of Detroit.

The Crane Maiden is based on the ancient Japanese folktale of a poor but honest young man who saves the life of a wounded crane. The crane turns out to be a young beautiful woman with whom he falls in love. Representing good and evil are two spirits, who battling for the soul of the young man, interfere in his life and even change his destiny. * Recommended for ages 7 and up
