If you loved Das Meer war ruhig, try Dolls
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Takeshi Kitano, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Das Meer war ruhig, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Dolls is
Takeshi Kitano turns his hand to doomed romance. Matsumoto jilts Sawako to appease his parents, a decision that precipitates tragedy for them both. The film offers a series of vignettes on love, each as brightly colored and artificial as a porcelain doll.
