If you loved One Fine Day, try The Tree of Wooden Clogs

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 Ermanno Olmi, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to One Fine Day, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Tree of Wooden Clogs is

A peasant family in 1900s Lombardy faces subsistence farming while debating whether to educate their son. A broken wooden clog becomes the crisis that tests every fragile decision. The film’s quiet endurance comes from its cast of non-actors and Olmi’s unflinching gaze at rural poverty.
