If you loved Fires on the Plain, try Kotoko
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.

What Kotoko is
January. A hospital hallway, the smell of antiseptic and sweat. A woman clutches her own ribs as a nurse leads her to check on the son she may never hold again. Tsukamoto’s cracked mirror, shattered logic laid bare.
