If you loved Seven Weeks, try His Motorbike, Her Island
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 Nobuhiko Obayashi, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Seven Weeks, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What His Motorbike, Her Island is
Obayashi goes full throttle on young love, as only he can. Ko teaches Miyo to ride a motorbike, and then becomes weirdly jealous of her talent. It's a slightly saccharine romance that put a lot of bums on bikes.
