If you loved Secret, try After Life
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.

What After Life is
Eternal paradise as a minimalist bureaucracy where the dead pick one memory to live with forever. Newly deceased souls face a weeklong selection process guided by clerks stuck between paperwork and eternity. Quietly profound, carried by hushed performances and the weight of small choices, it’s peak 90s Japanese humanism.
