You can also check it out from the New School Fogelman Library or watch it at NYU's Bobst Library.
Read this analysis http://nobetty.net/4d/resources/readings/THEFILMIDEA_Rashomon.pdf.
2. With your teammates, create one scenario to be shot from three different POVs, inspired by the film. This is an exercise, keep it short and simple: each scene should be one minute or less, and consist of only one shot. You must all agree on the scenario, then each student is responsible for shooting and directing one scene, as well as supporting sketches and a written description for that scene. Think about framing/composition, camera angle and position. Once your sketches are finished, sign out a camera and prepare to shoot your scenes.
3. Bring your equipment, sketches, and any other supporting materials to class next week. Be prepared to shoot at the beginning of class.
