Country: Japan
Directed by Yoshishige Yoshida
I have to admit that I couldn't really get the philosophical or ideological view of the director regarding the failed coup d etat of 1936 in Japan. However, I felt that is a movie about our deepest fears, our illusions, what we consider as our duties, the weakness of our nature, and the limits of our existence. The film visually with its minimal black and white photography with all these shadows is a masterpiece! You can watch it even without English subtitles enjoying it the same , giving to you the same strong impact. A lot of credits has to be given to the powerful music that gives from beginning an absurd tone , a feeling related to the unconscious , to the film
