"Rashomon" (1950) is a gripping psychological drama set in feudal Japan, the film presents four differing accounts of a samurai's murder and the subsequent events, as told by a woodcutter, a priest, the samurai's wife, and the accused bandit.
As each character narrates their version of the story, we witness the events unfold from unique perspectives, inviting the audience to question the very nature of truth and the unreliability of human perception. With its groundbreaking storytelling and exceptional performances, this timeless classic continues to inspire and provoke thought, making it a must-see for cinephiles and casual viewers alike.
