[male narrator] Today the world is witnessing the phenomenal popularity

of karate among the young people of the world.

Every man, deep in his subconscious mind

desires to become a strong man.

Karate is a world apart, a world of men.

Day and night, in New York, Paris, London

and throughout the world, young men have undergone

strenuous training, in a bid to challenge

the karate champions.

This documentary film shows the world and the men of karate

and the expert fighters, who would participate

in the first "World Open Karate Tournament"

held in Japan.

- You know what karate is? - Yes, I do.

What do you think of it?

'Well, I don't know too much about it''

'I personally am not terribly interested in it''

- 'You know what karate is?' - 'Yes, I know.'

'What do you think of it?'

'I think it's a gas for those who know how to handle it.'

'Don't use it to get their aggressions out.'

'You know, on their neighbors.'

Most important and indispensable in karate

is the basic thing which consists of three elements.

The thrust, the catch and the kick.

Extensive training not only develops the effective use

of power, but results in the strengthening

of the waist and the wrists

which require a great deal of twisting.

A man skilled in karate can easily break

ten or more sheets of Kawara tiles.

Or five, two centimeter boards.

[speaking foreign language]

[speaking foreign language]

[speaking foreign language]

The popularity of karate is not limited to Japan.

It has spread throughout the world.

North and South America

Europe, Africa, Australia and all of South East Asia.

This is karate. The world-wide sport.

[karate grunting]

[grunting continues]

[speaking in Japanese]

In the Dojo or training schools throughout the world

many women can be found training in the sport.

Because karate has a long history and tradition

of over 1000 years,there are various schools and styles.

Reflecting perhaps on the increasing crime rate today

not only men, but women as well

train themselves in the art of karate.

[karate grunting]

[speaking in Japanese]

Karate is the art of defending oneself when attacked

with bare hands, without weapons.

Specially selected delegates arrive from all over the world

to participate in the first "World Open Karate Tournament"

held in Tokyo.

Politics, Races and Ideologies are laid aside

as delegates arrive from all countries.

Their only ambition is to win the championship.

[speaking foreign language]

Arriving at Tokyo International Airport, is the US delegation

followed by delegates from West Germany, Switzerland

The United Kingdom, Poland, Belgium, Denmark

Holland, Sweden, South Africa

and the countries of South East Asia.

Represented among the 128 contestants

from 35 countries were various forms of martial art.

Karate experts of different schools.

Ex-boxers, Kung Fu fighters

and Muay Thai kick boxers from Thailand.

All contenders in the tournament

to choose the world's karate champion.

William Oliver, from the United States.

Although lightweight compared to the others

his unique bird-like spring is a highly advanced technique

capable of knocking down his opponents.

[karate grunting aggressively]

[rock music]

[music continues]

The American delegates from New York

are of an uncanny stature

reminding one of the eye of a hurricane

because of their deceptive calm appearance.

Even the self assured karate experts from Japan

cannot but notice their presence.

[rock music continues]

[indistinct chatter]

[male #1] 'What do you think about the tournament comin' up''

[Oliver] 'Well, hope we got a good chance and, uh...good support.'

But, you know, the trainin' and everythin'.

Hope it pays off, you know.

Do you think that we trained harder

than the people in the European countries?

Oh, yes, 'cause we got the top instructors, you know.

Sean, Nakamura, Shawn Giame.

What techniques do you think, will win in this tournament?

'Different than other tournaments here in America''

[Oliver] 'Well, I'd say we have to manage with a lot of'

a lot of kicking techniques.

You know, we just learn how to fight the new way

as far as elbows and knee is concerned.

'We have the advantage 'cause we know how to do that'

'and we know how to fight in the tournaments here.'

'It's a lotta kickin' techniques.'

'Straight punches and stuff like that, you know.'

[car door opens]

[karate grunting]

[speaking foreign language]

[speaking foreign language]

[karate grunting]

[kids chattering]

- Hi, how are you? - Okay.

Oliver's girlfriend, Cheryl

never fails to watch him training.

The couple plan to marry soon, and Oliver hopes to bring back

the World Championship as a wedding gift.

[male interviewer] 'Do you think that his winning'

'will benefit the relationship between you and him?'

[Cheryl] 'Well, I guess so.'

'How do you feel about his hours of trainin''

'a lot of times he has to be away from you''

'Well, sometimes I worry about him.'

'You know, because he practice a whole lot.'

'And, I um..'

'You know, like...I'm scared if he is not eating well.'

'I get after him to eat proper meals.'

'You know, to keep his body in shape.'

'What are your plans with him in the future?'

'after he comes back from the tournament''

'Well, I guess I'll be going to school.'

'And...we're not planning to get married real soon.'

'And I hope, he'd be working, saving up his money'

'and all that. I see for that to happen.'

[karate yelling]

[karate yelling]

Twenty four-year-old Willy Williams

is one of Oliver's competitors.

A young man with a beast like physique.

His powerful attack could easily win him

a prominent place in boxing.

[karate grunting]

[grunting continues]

[grunting continues]

One of the four American participants

Frank Clark is another of Oliver's competitors.

[engine starting]

[karate grunting]

[karate instructor] 'What are you waiting for?'

[karate grunting]

[karate instructor] 'Alright, go back.'

[karate grunting]

[karate grunting]

Good friends, Williams and Clark

share the strong comradeship found only in karate.

Both live in the suburbs of New York, have part time jobs

and devote themselves to karate.

For them, karate is life itself.

[karate grunting]

[speaking Japanese]

[karate grunting]

[breathing heavily]

The other delegate from the United States

is Charles Martin.

[Charles Martin] 'I personally feel that this is the only way'

'a tournament should be held.'

'It is a full contact tournament.'

'And that, people train and they try to do..'

'They train their bodies physically'

'and they train their minds mentally.'

'So as to be prepared for this''

'Now, one can take karate'

'and know theoretically how to do this'

'and how to do that, but unless they actually practice it'

'and put it in motion and use it.'

[karate grunting]

[karate grunting]

[karate grunting]

Both Martin and Williams stand six foot six.

When they strike each other

it will be with a vicious, violent power.

Martin does not rely merely on physical strength.

His intellectual approach to fighting has placed him

in a unique position in the field of karate.

He's taken part in the US Open Championshiptournaments

winning several times.

Williams, on the other hand

has a destructive straight punch

that has caused several injuries.

This will be a confrontation of intellect and brute power.

[karate grunting]

[speaking foreign language]

[child] 'Go, Willy.'

[karate instructor] 'Charles, hurry. Come on, both of you.'

[karate grunting]

[karate grunting]

[karate instructor] 'Yeah.'

[karate grunting]

While the deciding factor in the tournament

will be the extent of the foreign power

Oishi, of small stature is the hope

of the Japanese delegation.

[karate grunting]

His round kick, especially his left

has the speed of lighting.

[panting]

[upbeat music]

Endowed with a good physic for a Japanese

Toshi Kazusa Sato, always is on the offensive.

An aggressive fighter, he has won

the All Japan Championship several times.

He is best known for his favorite technique

of the left frontal and back round kicks.

Kishi undergoes severe training in New York.

He is being specially trained by Shihan Nakamura.

A karate instructor from Japan.

[slow music]

[slow music continues]

[karate grunting]

Among the American delegates, Oliver in particular

bet his life's dream on the world tournament

hoping to take back the championship

as a wedding gift for his fiancรƒยฉ, Cheryl.

He had spent much of life in preparation for the event

at the encouragement of his teachers and friends.

His deep interest in the orient

linked with Zen Buddhism and the samurai spirit

has won him the admiration of all who know him.

[karate grunting]

[grunting continues]

[grunting continues]

[band music]

The number of delegates from each country is limited

to four at this first World Open Karate tournament.

For the participants it is the culmination

of years of training and hard work.

Japan being the host country, enjoys the special privilege

of having eight delegates in the tournament.

[speaking Japanese]

There are various schools of karate in Japan.

However, most schools today are concerned only

with kata or style.

Tokshinkay, the sponsor of the tournament

however, is a school of Kenka Karate.

The fighting karate.

It is karate in its most practical form.

The principle of actual fighting karate

to counter attacks with only the use of bare hands.

The fighters bodies must be trained to a point

seemingly beyond the limits of human endurance.

Anyone on the receiving end of a blow

will easily have bones broken.

In order to counter this destructive power themselves

the men must undergo severe training.

[band music]

[crowd cheering]

[band music continues]

[speaking in Japanese]

[crowd clapping]

For this tournament, the traditional Japanese drum

was used to signal the beginning of the matches.

[all grunting]

Seiken Shiwari or straight punch board breaking

is compulsory for anyone

participating in the tournament.

Using a clenched fist

piles of two centimeter boards are broken.

Points being given to the number of boards used.

Compound fractures of the hand at this stage

can easily incapacitate a participant.

Prior to the matches, the American delegates

William Oliver and Charles Martin

give a demonstration

explaining the rules of the tournament.

In tournament matches, the Tokshinkay school

has far less rules regarding fouls than other schools.

While hand blows to the face or head

and countering with the hand and blows of any kind

to sore spots are forbidden.

All other tactics are permissible.

The attacker must not hold on to his opponent

for longer than two seconds.

Chinese kung fu, an art perfected and popularized

by Bruce Lee of the "Dragon" series motion pictures.

[breathing continues]

[crowd chattering]

[boat chugging]

[crowd chattering]

Originally developed in China

between the 10th and the 14th century

during the Tang and Ming dynasties

Kung fu is a traditional art of fighting

passed down through the ages to the present time.

It's style is quite different from Japanese karate.

Kung fu is a sport whose movements are rather a form

of physical beauty than a practical form of fighting.

As the tournament progresses

the number of injuries increase.

Normally in karate matches, the participants

do not hit their opponents

but stop the attack just short of actually hitting him.

However, for this world tournament

the opponents actually attack each other until one is beaten

or submits.

This is Kyokushin karate

which is the practical form of karate, a fighting karate.

The difference between this form of combat

and other forms such as wrestling and boxing

is that there is no matching of ranks or body weights.

[men speaking Japanese]

Nothing wrong.

Hu. Hu.

Here in Singapore, the days are hot and the nights cool.

Fighters are trained both day and night

under different conditions

taking into account the temperature.

The fighters have a reputation for their tenaciousness.

But how much they will be able to use it to their advantage

in the world tournament is another matter.

There are numerous dojo or schools in New York

where instructors from Japan meet out severe training.

Underscoring the world wide popularity of karate

the number of students is constantly increasing.

Some come from as far away as South America andNewZealand

to receive training.

It is natural, therefore

that tests for advancing in ranks are very competitive.

Students find it almost impossible

to advance in ranking from brown belt to black.

To be awarded the coveted black belt

one must defeat 10 others of a higher rank.

Only through this severe training can oneattain

the right to participate in the world tournament.

Charles Martin, William Oliver, Willy Williams and Frank Clark.

These US delegates were chosen

only after this hard competition.

- 'Come on, man.' - 'Put your hands up!'

- 'Come on, man.' - 'Come on, fight.'

Frank Clark, a good friend of Williams

devotes himself to improving his footwork.

An amateur boxing champion in his student days

Clark has never lost a fight since he was a young boy.

His dogged endurance and strength

Hey!

[audience applauds]

[melodic tune]

[female narrator] I think karate has made him even more so.

Because I'm not gonna say it's gonna change a personality

but if basically you're that way anyway, it's simply gonna

make you mature in those areas which I think he's matured in.

He.. I guess he was always a calm person, a patient person.

He always thought before he did things.

I think karate has impressed upon him

even more the importance of thinking

before you do things, the importance of self control.

The importance of being aware of what you're doing

how you're doing it

and...it has helped him to mature I think.
