If you loved Self Portrait, try Space Firebird 2772
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 Osamu Tezuka, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Animation territory. If that's the register that drew you to Self Portrait, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
bittersweet
What Space Firebird 2772 is
A gleaming lab. The hiss of sterile birth. Born in glass, raised by machines. The boy climbs through perfect skies, guided by Olga’s cold hands, until the horizon cracks. He traces the seams of a world that shouldn’t fit. A mid-period Tezuka meditation, pushing animation toward existential limits.
