"Rashomon" collects many short stories by Japanese writer Ryunosuke Akutagawa, represented by "Rashomon" and "In the Bamboo Forest". It uses a weather-proof layout to push people to the limit of life and death choices, showing the inescapability of "evil" and conveying Akutagawa's feelings. Ryunosuke's helplessness and despair towards human nature also shows that in a one-dimensional society, people living in it have become one-dimensional people. Such people have lost their freedom and creativity and no longer imagine or pursue another life different from real life.
It's really, really, really, really beautiful.
