If you loved Mio on the Shore, try It Stopped Raining
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 Ryutaro Nakagawa, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mio on the Shore, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What It Stopped Raining is
A budding bone detective obsessively circles a taiyaki cart after each downpour, unaware his romance is on ice. Memory loss turns their daily dates into fresh starts he can’t keep track of. The film memorably forgets to mention where his keys went between visits.
