An auteur is an artist with a distinctive approach, usually a film director whose filmmaking control is so unbounded but personal that the director is likened to be the "author" of the film, which thus manifests the director's unique style or thematic focus. Brilliant and often making history, these Directors have won awards and gone down in history. Their name synonymous with legendary film making. This season's director is the incredible Akira Kurosawa!
A 4K digital restoration of Akira Kurosawa's moving 1952 classic Ikiru. Two shows only! A terminally ill Tokyo bureaucrat, facing the inevitability of his own death, embarks on a profound quest to find meaning in his final days. Abandoning the monotony of his former life, he dedicates himself to creating a public park, hoping to leave a lasting legacy and achieve a sense of purpose before it’s too late. "Ikiru is a well-acted and deeply moving humanist tale about a man facing his own mortality, one of legendary director Akira Kurosawa's most intimate films."
