THIS SCREENING IS AT RUSH!In collaboration with The Roxie, New People Cinema reopens in historic San Francisco Japantown with a special weekend celebrating Japanese cinema. This pop-up event highlights the theme of awakening—a moment of return, renewal, and rediscovery through cinema across genres and generations.
A vivid, visceral Macbeth adaptation, Throne of Blood, directed by Akira Kurosawa, sets Shakespeare’s definitive tale of ambition and duplicity in a ghostly, fog-enshrouded landscape in feudal Japan. As a hardened warrior who rises savagely to power, Toshiro Mifune gives a remarkable, animalistic performance, as does Isuzu Yamada as his ruthless wife. Throne of Blood fuses classical Western tragedy with formal elements taken from Noh theater to create an unforgettable cinematic experience. NEW 4K RESTORATION.
