Kashima City, Saga Prefecture's folk performing art "Face Floating".
It is a demon mask art in which a drum is held in front of the body and danced while the sound of kane and taiko resonates.
It is said that by dancing "Face Float", it means to give thanks for the good harvest of the five grains and pray to the gods for rain, repose of grudges, and exorcism of evil spirits.

The following are the judges' comments.
------------
Held every September in Kashima City, Saga Prefecture, Menburyu is a nationally famous folk performing art.
It is a festival to pray for a good harvest and pray to the gods for the expulsion of evil spirits.
I chose one that wears a precise demon mask and conveys a powerful figure that seems to start moving at any moment.
