If you loved The Island Closest to Heaven, try Emotion
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 Nobuhiko Obayashi, and they both carry the surreal mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Island Closest to Heaven, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Emotion is
Cityside, late summer. A child's skipping rope. Emi's double appears to her as an older girl's vision, a doppelganger in the adult world, maybe a vampire's thrall. Is any of it real? Obayashi's avant-garde origins are on full display.
