If you loved Pure Heart, try Words of Devotion

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 Satoshi Kaneda, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Pure Heart, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Words of Devotion is

A love story tries on faith like a Sunday hat. Ootani watches Tachibana smile at someone new. The camera lingers just long enough to ask who’s really praying here.
