If you loved L'amaro giardino di Lesbo, try Under the Blossoming Cherry Trees
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 Masahiro Shinoda, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to L'amaro giardino di Lesbo, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Under the Blossoming Cherry Trees is
Kyoto mountains. Spring. An axe. A woodcutter takes wives, one after another. Each ends up dead. He meets a bewitching woman in the forest, and his murderous cycle escalates. Shinoda's artful ghost story is more uncanny than frightening.
