David Burliuk and the Japanese Avant-garde charts Burliuk's work during the two years he spent in Japan (1920-1922), staging exhibitions in Tokyo, Kyoto, and Yokohama; working with Japanese artists; and leaving a lasting influence on the growing Japanese Futurist movement. The film's many locations include the small island of Ogasawara in the Pacific Ocean, which Burliuk visited in the manner of Gauguin.
