Sansho the Bailiff PG

Part of Japanese Golden Age
Kenji Mizoguchi, Japan, 1954, 124m.

When an idealistic governor disobeys the reigning feudal lord, he is cast into exile, his wife and children left to fend for themselves and eventually wrenched apart by vicious slave traders. Under Kenji Mizoguchi’s dazzling direction, this devastating slave narrative became one of cinema’s greatest masterpieces, a monumental, empathetic expression of human resilience in the face of evil.


Our screening on 14 March was introduced by Tom Brown (KCL).
