If you loved El chico que vendía palomas, try Historias crueles de juventud
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 Nagisa Ōshima, and they both carry the foreign gem mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to El chico que vendía palomas, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
foreign gem
What Historias crueles de juventud is
Oshima's early film seeks to shock, and mostly succeeds. A young couple drifts into petty crime and nihilism in 1950s Japan. It got people talking, at least.
