Five days of tug-of-war ensue as teams battle with huge kites on the banks of a Japanese river. Teams compete from opposite sides of the river, going through as many as eighteen kites over the course of the colorful and spirited competition. Kite battles rage and thousands of spectators from Japan and around the world look to the sky for a visual treat.
