If you loved Bitter End of a Sweet Night, try A Story Written with Water
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Yoshishige Yoshida, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Bitter End of a Sweet Night, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What A Story Written with Water is
*Jules et Jim* meets *Tokyo Story* if the affair is with a drowned mother. A man loses his balance between betrothal and filial grief, the water in his eyes never drying. The wife waits, the mother sleeps, and the camera holds nothing back.
