If you loved Desperate Love 1989, try Only Yesterday

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

Theysit in Animation / Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Desperate Love 1989, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Only Yesterday is

Here's a film that asks, "What if your fifth-grade self judged you?" A woman in her late twenties goes to the countryside, reflecting on her childhood. It's a Studio Ghibli production for people who find Studio Ghibli a little too exciting.
