If you loved Dr. Akagi, try Zegen
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 Shōhei Imamura, and they sit in Comedy / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to Dr. Akagi, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Zegen is
Imamura directs a leering satire of wartime expansionism. One man establishes a string of overseas brothels, growing rich off Japan's imperial ambitions. It's a very specific story, told with a certain lack of shame.
