On the 15th of September, the Embassy of Japan hosted an exclusive opening event for the “Akira Kurosawa Retrospective”, a two-month project to introduce all the thirty works of Akira Kurosawa, in cooperation with CINEMATEK and the Japan Foundation. Following the successful screening of Japanese classics featuring Ozu Yasujiro and Kenji Mizoguchi over the past years, this project has been long awaited and is going to be another milestone project for all the classic cinema fans.
Ambassador Shimokawa opened the event with his welcoming remarks together with Micha, a film archivist at the CINEMATEK, followed by the special screening of “Kakushi-toride no san-akunin (The Hidden Fortress)”, one of Kurosawa’s masterpieces. The film was very well received and the hall was filled with joy and excitement afterwards.
Join in on the experience and enjoy the director’s remarkable works at CINEMATEK until 17 November.
