If you loved A Man Vanishes, try La anguila
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Shōhei Imamura, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to A Man Vanishes, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What La anguila is
You return to society running a barbershop after years in prison. Your only friend is an eel. But a mysterious young woman appears at the shop, and she needs your help. Imamura calmly observes humanity's darkest corners, finding humor in its resilience. The film lingers.
