If you loved The Boy and the Dog, try The 8-Year Engagement

Lo que comparten

Both films are directed by Takahisa Zeze, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Boy and the Dog, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The 8-Year Engagement is

The film asks: can love survive a lengthy coma? Mai and Hisashi are set to marry, but she collapses into a coma shortly before the ceremony. Years later, she wakes up with no memory of him. It is a somewhat gruelling depiction of devotion.
