If you loved El ahorcamiento, try El muchacho
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 Nagisa Ōshima, and they both carry the foreign gem, outsider mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to El ahorcamiento, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What El muchacho is
You live with your family on the streets, scamming drivers for money, but tensions rise as the cons become more desperate, they are observed by outsiders. Ōshima directs with social commentary.
