Akira Kurosawa's Final Tale of Love
Set in a 19th-century brothel, The Sea is Watching is the story of a beautiful young geisha, O-Shin (Nagiko Tohno), who harbors a samurai (Hidetaka Yoshioka) seeking refuge. Falling in love with O-Shin, the samurai hopes to cleanse her of the sins of her profession. But fate and fortune conspire to keep the lovers apart. When another young man appears, a thunderous storm strikes their village. What, if anything, will survive nature's fury?
This stunning epic was the final film written by legendary director Akira Kurosawa (The Seven Samurai,, Ran). Hand-picked by Kurosawa's son, director Kei Kumai delivers a visually striking love story for the ages.
