If you loved How to Become Myself, try BU・SU
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 Jun Ichikawa, and they both carry the tender mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to How to Become Myself, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
tender
What BU・SU is
Fassbinder without melodrama. A young woman leaves her constricted rural existence for a Tokyo geisha house. Ichikawa's unsentimental eye finds a quiet story of tradition versus modernity, carried by the understated performance of her lead actress.
