If you loved Tora-san's Cherished Mother, try Verano de una familia de Tokio
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 Yoji Yamada, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Tora-san's Cherished Mother, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Verano de una familia de Tokio is
A franchise rides shotgun with its patriarch at the wheel. Decades into scripting domestic disaster, Shuzo once more veers the Hirata family off-course, this time tailgated by mortality. One wonders if Yamada forgot the brakes.
