Rashoman

This Kurosawa film interweaves conflicting perspectives of one central crime, the rape of a woman, and the death of her husband recounted through contradictory flashbacks of the main characters involved, including that of the dead man.
The accounts thereof show what exactly each character feels they have to lose, by which detail are accounted for in their story, and the audience decides what to believe.
