The limited theatrical screening for the 4K restored version of Ran will be held at various theaters – such as the YEBISU GARDEN CINEMA in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan – beginning on April 01, 2017.
Considered by many scholars as a masterpiece of modern Japanese cinema, Akira Kurosawa’s 1985 tragedy Ran (“Chaos”) is returning to Japanese theaters for a limited time with a special 4K restoration print used for the screenings.
Ran was nominated for 4 Academy Awards (art direction, cinematography, direction, and costume design), of which it won the award for Best Costume Design.
