The Revue Cinema proudly presents the exclusive Toronto premiere of the newly restored 4K editions of Akira Kurosawa’s most iconic works—presented in partnership with Janus Films.



Don’t miss this rare opportunity to witness the visionary artistry of one of cinema’s greatest directors—restored and in razor-sharp clarity—on the big screen where it belongs.



Toronto Theatrical Premiere of New 4K Restoration!



One of the greatest achievements by Akira Kurosawa, Ikiru shows the director at his most compassionate—affirming life through an explora­tion of death. Takashi Shimura beautifully portrays Kanji Watanabe, an aging bureaucrat with stomach cancer who is impelled to find meaning in his final days. Presented in a radically conceived two­part structure and shot with a perceptive, humanistic clarity of vision, Ikiru is a multifaceted look at what it means to be alive.(JANUS FILMS)
