If you loved Die ewigen Brüste, try Fräulein Ogin
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 Kinuyo Tanaka, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / History / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Die ewigen Brüste, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Fräulein Ogin is
A Christian tea master and his daughter navigate faith and forbidden romance in feudal Japan. Ogin’s love for a married prince deepens just as the Shogun declares war on Christianity. The film’s crushing earnestness somehow remains endearing.
