If you loved High School Teacher: Maturing, try Rope and Skin
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 Shōgorō Nishimura, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to High School Teacher: Maturing, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Rope and Skin is
Yakuza without honor. A retired gambler returns to her old gangland stomping grounds after the boss is murdered. She vows revenge and recruits a crew, but gets captured by the rival gang. A vivid, nasty, and forgotten corner of pinky violence.
