[edit] Blurb
How would you feel if you learned you had just six months to live? For mid-level bureaucrat Watanabe, the reaction is one of horror at a life he can only regard as wasted. Ensconced in an array of numbing routines - pushing paper, shirking innovation, settling for coexistence rather than intimacy with his son and daughter-in-law - his heart begins to stir in a struggle to come truly alive before he must die. The simplest, most personal film by Akira Kurosawa (Rashomon, Seven Samurai), Ikiru is acclaimed as one of the sublime masterworks of world cinema and, though much imitated, is uniquely profound and deeply affecting.[1]
