If you loved Dolls, try Escenas en el mar
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 Takeshi Kitano, and they both carry the foreign gem, slow burn mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Dolls, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Escenas en el mar is
Takeshi Kitano directs, but also this is a romance? A young deaf man finds a surfboard and decides he will surf. His equally deaf girlfriend supports him. It's a very quiet film, one might say.
