If you loved Sandakan No. 8, try The Sea and Poison

Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Kei Kumai, and they both carry the dread, gut punch mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Sandakan No. 8, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Sea and Poison is
You assist doctors at a Japanese hospital during wartime. But resources dwindle and desperation mounts. Then superiors task you with a horrifying procedure on downed enemy pilots. Kumai's stark study of wartime ethics earned awards. It lingers on the banality of the unthinkable.
