Description

Plays Thursday, January 9 at 7:30 PM at the Michigan!

Cinematographer: Kazuo Miyagawa

Brimming with action while incisively examining the nature of truth, Rashomon is perhaps the finest film ever to investigate the philosophy of justice. Through an ingenious use of camera and flashbacks, director Akira Kurosawa reveals the complexities of human nature as four people recount different versions of the story of a man's murder and the rape of his wife.


Presented in Japanese with English subtitles.
