If you loved Am Flussufer, try The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese
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 Isao Yukisada, and they both carry the bittersweet, outsider, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Am Flussufer, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese is
A film that asks: what if a private investigator was also extremely thirsty? Kyoichi is being investigated by a PI, for cheating on his wife, but the PI has eyes for Kyoichi himself. It's a familiar setup, handled with considerable restraint.
