If you loved Nagasaki: Memories of My Son, try Tora-san's Cherished Mother

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 Yoji Yamada, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag. If that's the register that drew you to Nagasaki: Memories of My Son, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Tora-san's Cherished Mother is

This one attempts to tug at the heartstrings a bit more than usual. Tora-san believes he has found his long-lost mother working as a geisha in Kyoto and tries to reconnect. It's a very sweet film, if perhaps a little corny.
