63 years ago, renowned Japanese filmmaker Akira Kurosawa, directed Seven Samurai, a seminal work that would forever change the the face of filmmaking on many levels.In this first episode, we have particularly focused on the extraordinary life of a man called 'The Emperor' or 'Tenno' in Japan.
In a sometimes very difficult context made of natural catastrophes, family tragedies, censorship and war propaganda, we will tell you more about Kurosawa's formative years as well as his influences and the important persons he met that later made it possible to direct a 3h28 mn film... Seven Samurai !
