If you loved Tokyo March, try Flame of My Love
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 Kenji Mizoguchi, 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 Tokyo March, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Flame of My Love is
A melodrama that folds women’s rights into a love triangle, 19th-century Japan edition. Eiko flees Okayama for Tokyo, joins a doomed Liberal Party, and tangles with its disgraced leader. It keeps the romance warm, the politics tepid.
