The cherry blossom is almost revered in Japan: no deciduous tree is planted more often in Japanese cities – simply because it looks so beautiful. But only for a few days a year, depending on the region between mid-March and early May (in Okinawa, on the other hand, in January). It is probably this volatility that makes it so special. Or is the time of the sakura blossom including hanami (“cherry blossom watching”, vulgo drinking bouts) simply a commercial seasonal event? Do the Japanese marvel at the aesthetic of the white-pink canopy – or are they just happy to get out of the office before 8 p.m. and party?

Jörg Langer pursued these questions at the end of March 2018. Of course, out of purely journalistic interest and not because he always wanted to be out and about in Japan during the cherry blossom season…

fun fact: When Jörg booked the flight to Japan at the end of February, he was very annoyed: Due to scheduling reasons, he could only fly at the end of March – and hoped that he might spot one or the other early blooming sakura tree. Because the whole cherry blossom mania takes place throughout Japan over months, but within a few days in each location. And for Tokyo, the most likely (and confirmed as late as February on the numerous Japanese sakura forecasting websites) period of full bloom is early to mid-April. But the closer the flight date got, the better the “cherry blossom front” forecast got, due to the unusually mild March.

When your documentary filmmaker flew off, he could be sure: the cherry blossoms would be in full bloom when he arrived. Even Osaka conformed to the reporter’s personal travel plans and dutifully began to bloom fully a few days after the Kanto region. When Jörg returned to Tokyo, dozens and hundreds of blossoms fell from the trees with every gust of wind. If he had booked “according to the statistics” and had flown in early to mid-April, this video would not have been possible.
