If you loved 64: Part 2, try 64: Part 1
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Takahisa Zeze, and they sit in Mystery territory. If that's the register that drew you to 64: Part 2, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What 64: Part 1 is
Nagano Prefecture, thirteen years after. Lingering Showa-era kidnapping. A detective turned Public Relations Officer, haunted by the cold case, fields reporter animosity while his own daughter vanishes. Another snatch, echoing the past. Zeze's police procedural evokes the weight of unresolved trauma.
