If you loved Real, try Charisma

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 Kiyoshi Kurosawa, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Real, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Charisma is

Summer. A mountain road blocked by tape. The detective’s radio crackles one name. A missing politician held by a man who names trees the way others name sins. The detective hesitates, then vanishes toward a cedar so twisted it looks like a signature scrawled in bark. Kurosawa folds a thriller into a half-remembered dream.
