1983 Cannes Film Festival – Palme d’Or Winner

The Ballad of Narayama
Shôhei Imamura
In a poor 19th century rural Japanese village, everyone who reaches the age of 70 has to climb a nearby mountain to die. An old woman is getting close to the cut-off age, and we follow her last days with her family.
