If you loved Schweine, Geishas und Matrosen, try Das Insektenweib
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 Shōhei Imamura, and they both carry the raw mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Schweine, Geishas und Matrosen, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Das Insektenweib is
Naruse’s *When a Woman Ascends* meets Ozu’s *Late Spring* as a flywheel of misfortune. A rural girl’s century of defeats spins around her, her children’s lives recycling her own errors. The camera traces a half-century without pity.
