The King of Masks

When did the history of China change from 3,000 years to 30,000 years? At this rate, it may evolve into a "300,000-year history" in about 10 years.

By the way, the Chinese movie "The King of Masks" has the Japanese subtitle "hand in your hands to this oar". Original title: 變臉Change masks. A 1996 film directed by Wú Tiānmíng.
I suddenly remembered seeing it 20 years ago. This is the only movie before and after that that made me cry so hard. I cried and called her who recommended it to me.

"Change masks" is a trick that transforms a cloth mask with colorful kumadori and other facial features into a different mask the moment you hide your face with your hands or sleeves.
To a certain extent, I had imagined ​​how to make a quick change. But I thought wearing many masks on top of each other.

This art, which is said to be a secret passed down from generation to generation, dies out due to the lack of a successor.
