If you loved Distance, try After Life

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 Hirokazu Kore-eda, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Distance, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What After Life is

Eternal paradise as a minimalist bureaucracy where the dead pick one memory to live with forever. Newly deceased souls face a weeklong selection process guided by clerks stuck between paperwork and eternity. Quietly profound, carried by hushed performances and the weight of small choices, it’s peak 90s Japanese humanism.
