If you loved Les Enfants du temps, try The Garden of Words
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 Makoto Shinkai, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, tender mood tags, and they sit in Animation / Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Les Enfants du temps, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Garden of Words is
Shinjuku garden on a rainy morning, sound of raindrops on umbrellas, a sketchbook lies open. A young shoemaker and a mysterious woman cross paths repeatedly, their bond growing with each rain-soaked encounter. Makoto Shinkai tenderly observes fleeting connections.
