From the director of such classics as La Jetée (1962), Le Joli Mai (1963), and Sans Soleil (1983), A.K. is both a making-of documentary showing the filmmaking process of one of cinema's finest practitioners, Akira Kurosawa, as he completes his most epic film and a meditation on the nature of film itself.
