Visionary director Akira Kurosawa brings imagination and introspection to the screen in this stunning collection of dreamlike vignettes.
Dreams explores themes of nature, memory, childhood, and the human condition through visually breathtaking storytelling that lingers long after the final frame. As part of our Big Read series, this film pairs beautifully with Ross Gay’s reflections on attention, gratitude, and the power of noticing the world around us. A meditative and unforgettable cinematic experience. FREE and open to the public.
