If you loved The Fish Tale, try Mori, The Artist's Habitat
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 Shuichi Okita, and they both carry the cozy, foreign gem, tender mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Fish Tale, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Mori, The Artist's Habitat is
A gentle portrait of a life lived differently, this one. Eccentric elderly painter Morikazu lives in his own little world, finding inspiration in his garden's plants, insects, and cats. It's a pleasant film, if perhaps a little too pleased with itself.
