If you loved Bamboo Doll of Echizen, try El baile en la casa Anjo
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 Kōzaburō Yoshimura, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Bamboo Doll of Echizen, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What El baile en la casa Anjo is
After WWII, a ruined aristocratic family hosts a final ball in their crumbling estate before losing everything to debt collectors. The night’s waltzes become a funeral for a way of life. A quiet, elegant tragedy.
