If you loved Kinki, try Shoplifters
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 Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Kinki, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Shoplifters is
Tokyo outskirts, rainy evening, a family huddled around a TV. A makeshift family of shoplifters and scavengers forms uneasy bonds, taking in a young girl found on the streets. Kore-eda probes the edges of familial love.
