If you loved Close Up, try Il sapore della ciliegia
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 Abbas Kiarostami, and they both carry the foreign gem, outsider mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Close Up, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Il sapore della ciliegia is
*Ikiru* without the will to live. Mr. Badii drives around Tehran looking for someone who will agree to bury him after he commits suicide. He eventually finds a taker, but the man tries to convince him to choose life. A film about a choice, not an act.
