If you loved Sweet Little Lies, try A Cappella
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 Hitoshi Yazaki, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Sweet Little Lies, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What A Cappella is
A pair of romantics in 1969 Sendai meet over matcha in a café named after unaccompanied song. Kyoko’s campus politics clash with Wataru’s quieter defiance until an unforeseen moment upends their fragile harmony. The film ends exactly where such devotion always ends: in silence.
