If you loved It's a Flickering Life, try Mom, Is That You?!

Un pont entre un film que tu as déjà vu et un que peu de gens ont croisé. Voici ce qu'ils partagent, et ce que le second fait que le premier ne fait pas.

Ce qu'ils partagent

Both films are directed by Yoji Yamada, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to It's a Flickering Life, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Mom, Is That You?! is

A gentle film about a middle-aged son trying to reconnect with his aging mother. Akio travels to Tokyo and finds her vibrantly happy, hanging out with a suspiciously nice new friend. It's a movie about the way people change, or don't.
