In the late 80s on the North Shore of Oahu, my great grandfather took his own life by way of seppuku with a samurai sword that had been passed down through my family though generations and was believed to be cursed. Upon discovering what had happened, my great grandmother buried the sword out in the woods, never to be seen again. This choreographed film is inspired by those events. "Yurei" tells the story of a man, a demon, and a cursed sword.
