If you loved Godai - The Wunderkind, try Ask This of Rikyu
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 Mitsutoshi Tanaka, and they both carry the devastating, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to Godai - The Wunderkind, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Ask This of Rikyu is
A Kyoto fishmonger’s boy trades scales for tea bowls and ascends to become the shogun’s favored aesthete. His rituals of silence and porcelain earn lethal envy. The film’s lacquered stillness prizes ceremony over catharsis.
