and ends with open interpretation by individuals.

The Rashomon Effect
A term used to describe how a single event can be described in a variety of ways
due to the unreliability of multiple witnesses. The witnesses’ unreliability and subjectivity
are a result of situational, social and cultural differences.
The term “Rashomon Effect” was coined after iconic filmmaker Akira Kurosawa first utilized
the storytelling technique in the film Rashomon (1950). The movie and the Rashomon Effect
influenced countless films throughout history. The Rashomon Effect transcended cinema
and is a term that is commonly used in both psychology and law.
