If you loved Au revoir l'été, try The Real Thing
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 Koji Fukada, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Au revoir l'été, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Real Thing is
The rom-com asks: what if ennui could be cured by the manic pixie dream girl? A bored office worker juggles workplace romances until a mysterious woman appears. But maybe she's less of a dream and more of a nightmare. It's a very specific vibe.
