If you loved Katatsumori, try Embracing
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Naomi Kawase, and they sit in Documentary territory. If that's the register that drew you to Katatsumori, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Embracing is
Diary meets cinéma vérité. A young woman documents her close bond with her grandmother while trying to locate the father who abandoned her family. Kawase's debut feature anticipates her career-long investigation into memory, family, and the camera's possibilities.
