If you loved Shokuzai, try Tokyo sonata
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 Kiyoshi Kurosawa, and they both carry the foreign gem, gut punch, outsider, slow burn mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Shokuzai, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Tokyo sonata is
The বুঝি of Ozu without the gaiety. A father secretly loses his job but maintains the charade with his family. The strain exposes everyone's hidden desires and simmering resentments. A quietly devastating portrait of contemporary Japanese life.
