About Dersu Uzala. Russian Dreams of Kurosawa
In 1971, the frustrated Akira Kurosawa made an unsuccessful attempt to cut his veins. His life was restored by the opportunity offered by Mosfilm: to make the first Soviet-Japanese collaborative film "Dersu Uzala". The documentary reflects the challenging shooting period and captures the memories of crew members more than 40 years later.
Directed by Linda Bahmane, Dersu Uzala. Russian Dreams of Kurosawa leans on a strong ensemble — Teruyo Nogami, Yuriy Solomin, Vladimir Vasilyev — 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 2020.
