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.
All About Lily Chou-Chou
Yentown - Swallowtail Butterfly
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Shunji Iwai, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to All About Lily Chou-Chou, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Yentown - Swallowtail Butterfly is
You wash up in a neon sluice called Yentown where the black market hums like a broken jukebox. A runaway foreign girl trades contraband secrets for shelter. Then the city’s corporate overlords mark her as stolen goods. Shunji Iwai observes the glow of cigarette lighters spelling rebellion before the neon ceases.
