If you loved Muddy River, try The Buried Forest
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 Kōhei Oguri, and they both carry the bittersweet, slow burn, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Muddy River, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Buried Forest is
Toyota Corolla meets provincial diary. Three girls carve adventures from a reclaimed forest and its skeletal pines. Their world carries the film.
