Madadayo (1993) Japan. Drama.

Akira Kurosawa´s last film 'Madadayo,' is a heartwarming drama set in postwar Tokyo, the film follows the story of Professor Hyakken Uchida, a retired teacher who, despite the challenges and hardships of life in the aftermath of war, finds joy and purpose through his writing, his former students, and his appreciation of life's simple pleasures. With its poignant exploration of friendship, gratitude, and the power of resilience in the face of adversity, 'Madadayo' is a must-see for anyone seeking a moving and uplifting cinematic experience. Following the screening there will be a film analysis and discussion with independent filmmaker and scholar Elías Nahmías who has studied and worked in every aspect of filmmaking.
