If you loved Hanagatami, try His Motorbike, Her Island
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 Nobuhiko Obayashi, 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 Hanagatami, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What His Motorbike, Her Island is
Obayashi goes full throttle on young love, as only he can. Ko teaches Miyo to ride a motorbike, and then becomes weirdly jealous of her talent. It's a slightly saccharine romance that put a lot of bums on bikes.
