If you loved His Motorbike, Her Island, try Hanagatami
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 Nobuhiko Obayashi, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to His Motorbike, Her Island, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Hanagatami is
Apparently war dramas can be pretty. Toshihiko attends school in a coastal town. It politely meanders through adolescence and wartime.
