If you loved Ping Pong, try ICHI
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 Fumihiko Sori, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Ping Pong, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What ICHI is
You're a blind minstrel crossing scorched roads and restless towns, your shamisen slung over a shoulder, a cane tapping ahead like a heartbeat. And then the blade slides free from polished wood when hands reach for you in alley shadows. The film walks the line between ballad and bloodshed, 19th-century Japan flickering in torchlight and steel.
