Based on the exploration, this study seks to analyze the trauma of victims who invisbly exist in the reverse side of Okinawa society under the violence of dominance and sub-ordinance. For the research, this study aims to focus on Judith Herman’s psychoanalytical discusion. When the figures from the piece confront the trauma of nonpolitcal violence under the structure of violence, the figures show two diferent types of behaviors. First, the victim gets fetered by the person inflicting the nonpolitcal violence. Second, the figure breaks away from the nonpolitcal violence, becomes trans-politcal figure, and fights against as a counter violence. The background of Rainbow Bird is Okinawa society where a girl was raped on September 195. The overal piece describes the raly ocuring in the public sectors. This emphasizes the invisble world’s violence and existence of victim in the reverse side of the visble world. It also encourages Okinawa society’s reflection on not advancing toward for counter violence. In the piece, the victim existing under the structure of violence composes a counter violence through trans-politcal violence. This brings colapse of inflictor’s existence and the figure seks to reconect to the community. The scene where the figure heads toward Yanbaru Forest sugests the posibilty of recovery through solidarity of victims sharing the memory of violence.

Through such metaphor, Medoruma Shun sugests that a counter violence is the premise for recovering from Okinawa society’s trauma.
