Japan: Rashomon [OmeU] JP, 1950, R: Akira Kurosawa mit Toshirô Mifune, Machiko Kyô, Masayuki Mori, 88 Min

Through an ingenious use of camera and flashbacks, Kurosawa reveals the complexities of human nature as four people recount different versions of the story of a man's murder and the rape of his wife.
