If you loved Sada, try Casting Blossoms to the Sky

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 Nobuhiko Obayashi, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Sada, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Casting Blossoms to the Sky is

You arrive in Nagaoka to cover the earthquake damage and find its layered scars from war and quakes. The city’s ghosts linger in a student’s unfinished play that belonged to your ex. An old stagehand hands you a script. The wind carries both ash and petals.
