About Life Work of Akira Kurosawa
Acclaimed filmmaker Akira Kurosawa has been misunderstood. Despite his public perception an a perfectionist who would clash with anyone in his way, the real Kurosawa was actually a very gentle and soft-spoken director. This documentary depicts the human being Akira Kurosawa on the set of his masterpiece "Ran".
Directed by Mitsuhiko Kawamura, Life Work of Akira Kurosawa leans on a strong ensemble — Tatsuya Nakadai, Shinnosuke Ikehata, Takao Saitō — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2022.
