    Akira Kurosawa's film, based on the memoirs of the Russian explorer Vladimir Arsenyev. In 1976, it won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, earning Akira Kurosawa the distinction of being the only director to have won this award twice at the time. It teaches lessons about friendship, love of nature, and humanism. It is a very impressive film, both in its dialogues and its cinematography; each frame is like a painting or a magnificent nature photograph.
