The British Film Institute will bring back to UK cinemas Yasujirô Ozu's masterpiece Tokyo Story, which celebrates its 70th anniversary this year. Screenings will begin on September 1.
The film has been restored in 4K and is already out on Blu-ray.
Description: Yasujirō Ozu's most enduring masterpiece, Tokyo Story, is a beautifully nuanced exploration of filial duty, expectation and regret. From the simple tale of an elderly husband and wife's visit to Tokyo to see their grown-up children, Ozu draws a compelling contrast between the measured dignity of age and the hurried insensitivity of a younger generation.
