Dersu Uzala

Russia/Japan A. Kurosawa

Taken from the published journals of a Russian surveyor who worked in Siberia in the early 1900's...met and came to love a Goldi native.

Dersu was a man of the forest...in tune with the natural world...and fated to extinction once the modern world reached his realm. Ironically he was assisting in this inevitable process.

A moving tribute to a remarkable man. First rate work by one of cinema's masters.
