If you loved Cerdos y acorazados, try La mujer insecto
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 Shōhei Imamura, and they both carry the raw mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Cerdos y acorazados, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What La mujer insecto is
Naruse’s *When a Woman Ascends* meets Ozu’s *Late Spring* as a flywheel of misfortune. A rural girl’s century of defeats spins around her, her children’s lives recycling her own errors. The camera traces a half-century without pity.
