Description:
From the series, "Rien no Hana" (It means the flowers of the theater), Bando Mitsugoro VII is in the role of the Mute in "Sannin-Katawa" (Three Disabled Persons). He is showing a card indicating he is "oshi" (mute) but his rolled up eyes and tightly closed lips express his determination to communicate something of importance.
