If you loved Pendulum, try Giovanni's Island
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 Animation / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Pendulum, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Giovanni's Island is
WWII meets Grave of the Fireflies. Two brothers and their community are displaced to a small island seized by the Soviets. The animation is lovely, but the storybook elements clash with the grim history.
