If you loved Ecstasy of the Black Rose, try Path of the Beast
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 Tatsumi Kumashiro, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Ecstasy of the Black Rose, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Path of the Beast is
Saki, a 17-year-old noodle vendor’s daughter, hustles between school dropouts, street romances and late-night truck stops. She quits her paramours, hoping to outrun her mother’s itinerant history. The film documents this doomed attempt at reinvention with the subtlety of a neon sign in a back alley.
