If you loved For Keeps, try The Karate Kid Part II

What The Karate Kid Part II is

Okinawa hills, summer, a worn wooden fence. Miyagi returns home with Daniel, confronting past loves and rivalries in a village where honor is a matter of life and death. This sequel grounds its conflicts in cultural heritage.
