If you loved Le Jardin des femmes, try La Rivière Fuefuki
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 Keisuke Kinoshita, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Le Jardin des femmes, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What La Rivière Fuefuki is
You’re the eldest son of a dirt-poor family living under the Fuefuki Bridge, where the water eats the fields whole. Then you step into a warlord’s shadow and your brothers follow, each carrying the river’s grief forward. Kinoshita shoots the span between generations like a wound that never closes.
