Akira Kurosawa Movie Corner



Rhapsody in August
twenty-ninth movie

Akira Kurosawa poster 29
Released Date: 18 May 1991 
Running TIme: 97 minutes 
Color: Color 
Screen Format: Vista Vision 
 

Based from an idea from the book, 
'Nabe No Naka" by Kiyoko Murata, the 
story tells of a grandmother who cannot 
tell the difference between reality and 
illusions. Her grandchildren, living in 
the city, spend summer vacation at her 
house in Nagasaki. Through this 
experience the children come to 
understand the war. The film's message 
is about the tragedy of nuclear weapons 
and was made possible with the 
collaboration of Richard Gere when he 
met Kurosawa during a publicity tour in 
Tokyo.
