Jessica Orek. Like a detective story\, the film unta ngles the web of influences behind Japan&rsquo\;s captivation with insect s. It opens in modern-day Tokyo where a single beetle recently sold for $ 90\,000 then slips back to the early 1800s\, to the first cricket-selling business and the development of haiku and other forms of insect literatu re and art. Through history and adventure\, Beetle Queen Conquers Tokyo t ravels all the way back in time to stories of the fabled first emperor wh o named Japan the &ldquo\;Isle of the Dragonflies.&rdquo\; DTSTAMP:20240420T033446Z SUMMARY:Beetle Queen Conquers Tokyo URL:/en/events/2010/06/02/beetle-queen-conquers-tokyo/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
