If you loved An Aria on Gazes, try The Fetist
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 Hisayasu Satō, and they both carry the neon soaked, raw mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Horror territory. If that's the register that drew you to An Aria on Gazes, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Fetist is
Rain-slicked alleyways, late autumn, the hum of a flickering neon sign. A ronin trades violence for cash while a painter smears blood-red pigments onto canvas, both circling a woman who doesn’t speak. Feels like Kiyoshi Kurosawa haunting a V-Cinema ghost.
