If you loved Vers la joie, try Ville portuaire
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 Ingmar Bergman, and they both carry the tender mood tag, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Vers la joie, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Ville portuaire is
Bergman does his neorealist phase. Berit leaves the women's home and starts a romance with Gösta, a sailor, but she struggles with her bad reputation and worse family. The director got to check "social problem film" off his to-do list.
