If you loved La Puerta del Retorno, try Ahora sí, antes no
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 Hong Sang-soo, and they both carry the bittersweet, outsider, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to La Puerta del Retorno, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Ahora sí, antes no is
Hong Sang-soo asks if you've considered how one day can go. A film director accidentally arrives in town early for a screening, meets a local artist, and spends the day with her. It’s a double feature, sort of, since the same scenario plays out twice with slight variations.
