If you loved Godai - The Wunderkind, try Ask This of Rikyu
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 Mitsutoshi Tanaka, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to Godai - The Wunderkind, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Ask This of Rikyu is
A Kyoto fishmonger’s boy trades scales for tea bowls and ascends to become the shogun’s favored aesthete. His rituals of silence and porcelain earn lethal envy. The film’s lacquered stillness prizes ceremony over catharsis.
