Eight visually rich vignettes drawn from Kurosawa’s own dreams—fox weddings and vanished orchards, a soldier’s ghosts, a walk through Van Gogh’s canvases, nuclear nightmares, and a water-mill utopia—meditate on childhood, art, mortality, and humanity’s uneasy bond with nature.

There’s a lot you can take from this film but I found it to be a great fantastical examination of human guilt and its many manifestations.

very titular in that the movie is one long lulling dream sequence. if one is able to enter that mindset, the passions will bubble forth.

Great visuals. "The Crows" was probably my favourite visually, but "The Tunnel" had the best dialogue.

Wonderful sequence of dreams beyond description. Abstract, imaginative, and surreal. So I guess it's not really beyond description.
