If you loved A Trap, try The Hidden Blade
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 Yoji Yamada, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to A Trap, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Hidden Blade is
Oh, the samurai with a crush. A well-born swordsman falls for a peasant, then gets ordered to stab his best friend—classic loyalty test. The film spends most of its runtime wondering which hurts more: the heart or the blade.
