If you loved Lullaby of the Earth, try Besos
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Yasuzō Masumura, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Lullaby of the Earth, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Besos is
The 1957 film stages childhood’s first romance as a prison-visit icebreaker. Two kids gamble their way to a beach day after checking in on incarcerated fathers. A boxy 4:3 snapshot of fleeting innocence that ages like over-exposed film stock.
