If you loved Fires on the Plain, try Hokage - Ombra di fuoco
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 Shinya Tsukamoto, and they both carry the dread mood tag, and they sit in Drama / War territory. If that's the register that drew you to Fires on the Plain, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Hokage - Ombra di fuoco is
You're a child scavenging for scraps in the scorched ruins of a city, trading trinkets for rice while grown-ups whisper of ghosts and gunfire. But the streets remember everything, and so do the eyes of the men who knew your father. This film moves like a fever dream shot on grainy 16mm, lingering in the air like smoke from a dying fire.
