If you loved The Long Darkness, try Das Meer und das Gift
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 Kei Kumai, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Long Darkness, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Das Meer und das Gift is
You assist doctors at a Japanese hospital during wartime. But resources dwindle and desperation mounts. Then superiors task you with a horrifying procedure on downed enemy pilots. Kumai's stark study of wartime ethics earned awards. It lingers on the banality of the unthinkable.
