If you loved The Place Promised In Our Early Days, try She and Her Cat
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 Makoto Shinkai, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Animation territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Place Promised In Our Early Days, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What She and Her Cat is
Kedi without whimsy. A lonely cat narrates his devotion to his owner, a young woman struggling with life after school. Shinkai's early b&w short is a sweet character study that belies his later visual obsessions.
