Your Life as a Geisha
Step into the exquisite, brutal, and utterly mesmerising world of an 18th century geisha — where beauty is an art form, discipline is survival, and every glance carries meaning. From being plucked from your family as a child, to your debut as a maiko, to becoming a legendary geiko in the heart of Kyoto, this is the untold story of what it genuinely took to live as Japan's most elite and enigmatic entertainer.
