When Rashomon was entered in the 1951 Venice Film Festival (August 20-September 10) at the prompting of Italian producer Guilliana Stramigioli, who had seen and liked it upon release the previous year, nobody in the Japanese film industry expected the film to do well. After all, this was a peculiarly Japanese film set in the medieval Heian period, which seemed unlikely to be of interest to a Western audience. Certainly, its director, Akira Kurosawa, had not made Rashomon with an international audience in mind, but Venice loved it. The Venice prize was, at the time, the biggest honor in world cinema; its award to Rashomon hinted at the riches of an, until then, almost-unknown cinema and established the reputation of Kurosawa as its most internationally powerful practitioner.
