Rhapsody in August streaming: where to watch online?

Rhapsody in August (Japanese: 八月の狂詩曲, Hepburn: Hachigatsu no Rapusodī) is a 1991 Japanese drama film by Akira Kurosawa based on the novel Nabe no Naka by Kiyoko Murata. Starring Sachiko Murase, Hidetaka Yoshioka, and Richard Gere, the story centers on an elderly hibakusha, who lost her husband in the 1945 atomic bombing of Nagasaki, as she cares for her four grandchildren over the summer. She learns of a long-lost brother, Suzujiro, living in Hawaii who wants her to visit him before he dies. Thematic analyses of the film focus primarily on the concern of the nuclear bomb and its remembrance; examining how the use of silence and music have been used to express its horror.
