Ran (4K Restoration) - EPIC SUMMER
An ageing warlord's decision to divide his kingdom among his sons unleashes a devastating struggle for power.
The ageing warlord Hidetora divides his kingdom among his three sons in the hope of securing peace and stability. Instead, rivalry, betrayal and violent conflict tear apart both his family and his domain. What follows is a tragic struggle driven by power, loyalty and revenge.
De oude krijgsheer Hidetora besluit zijn rijk onder zijn drie zonen te verdelen in de hoop vrede en stabiliteit te bewaren. In plaats daarvan ontstaan rivaliteit, verraad en gewelddadige conflicten die zijn familie en land langzaam uiteenrijten. Wat volgt is een tragische strijd waarin macht, loyaliteit en wraak centraal staan.
