If you loved Cochons et cuirassés, try La Femme Insecte

Ce qu'ils partagent
Both films are directed by Shōhei Imamura, and they both carry the raw mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Cochons et cuirassés, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What La Femme Insecte is
Naruse’s *When a Woman Ascends* meets Ozu’s *Late Spring* as a flywheel of misfortune. A rural girl’s century of defeats spins around her, her children’s lives recycling her own errors. The camera traces a half-century without pity.
