If you loved Red Angel, try Seisaku's Wife
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 Yasuzō Masumura, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance / War territory. If that's the register that drew you to Red Angel, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
