CLASSIC JAPANESE CINEMA: WOMAN IN THE DUNES

This masterpiece of the Japanese post-war New wave is a kaleidoscope of film styles and genres, and a bold blend of contemporary drama, erotica, and suspense. But first and foremost it is an existential dive into the horror of the human psyche. Often described as a psychological thriller, it received widespread critical acclaim and was nominated for two Academy Awards.
