If you loved Rotes Kornfeld, try Hero
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Zhang Yimou, and they sit in Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to Rotes Kornfeld, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Hero is
Ancient China, silk fans fluttering, a calligrapher's brush strokes. A nameless warrior stands before the emperor, his story unfolding with three swords and a promise. Zhang Yimou lensed a nation's birth.
