A dream is a real dialogue between a person and oneself, a process of learning from oneself, and another life closely related to oneself...

Kurosawa-style black and white title "Dream"

Heizawa's Eight Dreams, as small as a child's fantasy dream, as big as a police dream in the universe. From the good to the ugly, the layers are in-depth, and it can be regarded as a straightforward and profound preaching. Kurosawa's dream is very real, without the illusory feeling of dreams in our original ideology, and dreams are only carriers for expressing personal wishes. The existence of dreams does not adversely affect reality. The magic realism of dreams is used to explain some facts, both true and false, heavy and light, giving the viewer a wonderful illusion of deep contemplation as an outsider. Admiration for Kurosawa's meticulousness in his twilight years.

Dreams quotes

  • Nuclear Plant Worker: The red one is plutonium-239. 10,000,000th of a gram causes cancer. The yellow one in strontium-90. It gets inside you and causes leukemia. The purple one is cesium-137. It affects reproduction. It causes mutations. It makes monstrosities. Man's stupidity is unbelievable. Radioactivity was invisible, and because of its danger, they colored it. But that only lets you know which kind kills you.
