If you loved One Day, You Will Reach the Sea, try Summer Blooms
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 Ryutaro Nakagawa, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to One Day, You Will Reach the Sea, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
