A brief reference to Kurosawa´s fear of anything related to nuclear energy serves as an opening to he analysis made by the author on the impact on Kurosawa´s work of the nuclear explosions in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Based on an extensive bibliography, the article starts by studying the first towo movies made by the filmmaker (Dreams and Rhapsody in August) on the subject, to conclude that both refect, in their approach to the subject, the quietist resignation of the mono no aware. On the other hand, the analysis of his first incursion into the subject (I live in Fear: record os a living being) reveals, despite several misunderstandings, a more combative attitude by Kurosawa with respect to the nuclear danger.
