If you loved Haru, try Chikamatsu Monogatari

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

What Chikamatsu Monogatari is

A lonely scrollmaker’s wife and his apprentice find romance while on the run from a scandal that starts with an accusation and ends in flight. Their newfound love blossoms as quickly as the gossip spreads. The film settles for a tidy moral without straining.
