If you loved Café Lumière, try Die Blumen von Shanghai
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 Hou Hsiao-hsien, and they both carry the bittersweet, slow burn, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Café Lumière, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
