His masterpiece 'Rashomon' revolutionized cinema by presenting the same event through multiple conflicting perspectives, making objective truth fundamentally unknowable.

His films methodically deconstruct how we perceive reality and assign meaning, questioning whether we can ever truly know what happened or what another person intends.
