Akira Kurosawa's Dreams

Eight mesmerising tableaus explore the subconscious at various stages of an elderly mans life in this visually stunning work from the master Japanese film-maker. A boys meeting with the spirits of a forest, a snowbound encounter with an angel of death, and a novice painter's search for Van Gogh are some of the fascinating topics explored.
