IKIRU - AKIRA KUROSAWA

Directed by Akira Kurosawa

Japan, 1952, 2h 23min, DCP, In Japanese with English Subtitles

“One of the few movies that might actually be able to inspire someone to lead their life a little differently.”
—Roger Ebert

In this early Kurosawa drama, an aging Tokyo salaryman, approaching retirement, contemplates the meaning of life — and more specifically, the meaning of his life — as he weighs the good he has done in the world and finds it wanting. He hurries to make amends as his life approaches its twilight.
