An Imperial Japanese Army regiment surrenders to British forces in Burma at the close of World War II and finds harmony through song. A private, thought to be dead, disguises himself as a Buddhist monk and stumbles upon spiritual enlightenment. Magnificently shot in hushed black and white, Kon Ichikawa’s The Burmese Harp is an eloquent meditation on beauty coexisting with death and remains one of Japanese cinema’s most overwhelming antiwar statements, both tender and brutal in its grappling with Japan’s wartime legacy.

Sinopsis : Plus de cinq siècles avant que Christophe Colomb ne découvre officiellement l’Amérique, un drakkar viking aborda les côtes de ce continent sauvage. Entre les barbares du nord et les Indiens natifs, le choc fut effroyable, et seul un enfant viking survécut. Adopté par la tribu des Indiens Wampanoag, le jeune homme blanc désormais connu sous le nom de Ghost grandit et devint un redoutable guerrier…
When a shipwreck kills a boat full of Vikings and their Native American captives, the only survivor is a young blond child. Adopted by the People of the Dawn tribe, the boy grows up into a warrior. As an adult, the former Viking, now named Ghost (Karl Urban, THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING), is an important member of his tribe with only disturbing memories to tie him to the Norsemen. When another ship of Vikings destroys his village and all he knows, he vows revenge.
