If you loved Madres verdaderas, try Aguas tranquilas
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 Naomi Kawase, and they both carry the bittersweet, slow burn, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Madres verdaderas, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Aguas tranquilas is
Naomi Kawase's film tackles youth and hardship. Kaito and Kyoko navigate life on a Japanese island. It's a coming of age story with predictable angst.
