TORRANCE — “The Burmese Harp” (1956, 2 hours, 23 minutes), directed by Kon Ichikawa, will be shown on Sunday, Oct. 21, at 5 p.m. at Faith United Methodist Church, 2115 W. 182nd St., Torrance.
When a Japanese platoon surrenders to British forces in Burma in 1943, the platoon’s harp player, Mizushima (Shoji Yasui), is selected from the prisoners of war to deliver a request for surrender to a Japanese regiment holed up on a mountain. Mizushima fails to convince the soldiers to accept defeat, and a last stand commences.
Traumatized by the bloodshed of his fellow countrymen, Mizushima disguises himself as a Buddhist monk and begins a journey toward peace of mind amid the chaos.
“The Burmese Harp” (“Biruma no Tategoto” in Japanese) won an award at the Venice International Film Festival in 1956 and was nominated for an Academy Award for best foreign-language film the following year. It was Ichikawa’s first film released internationally
