AKIRA KUROSAWA'S DREAMS (1990)

A kaleidoscope of eight dreams where each dream leaves the audience with an open ending triggers thoughts and reflections shadowed by the audience's knowledge, values, and believes.  The beauty of each dream offers several different meanings for each individual viewer, which provides personal impact on the audience.  The dreams also present many similar notions, yet, each notion has its unique symbolism formed by the viewers own collective knowledge, beliefs, and values, which in the end offers an absolutely exceptional cinematic experience.
