If you loved Das Zen-Tagebuch, try Hotel Hibiscus
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 Yuji Nakae. If that's the register that drew you to Das Zen-Tagebuch, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Hotel Hibiscus is
This hotel’s house rules must include a waiver against hyperactivity. A six-year-old and a crumbling rooming house in Okinawa make for odd bedfellows. The place limps along like its last guest’s luggage, attached by a bungee cord.
