If you loved The Anthem of the Heart, try Rainbow Song
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 Naoto Kumazawa, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Anthem of the Heart, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Rainbow Song is
The film stitches two eras together loosely, a survivor’s flashback and a romance that never quite marbles into words. After losing a friend to time’s caprice, a TV grunt replays their shared film-school reveries in soft-focus vinyl. In the end, the movie settles for the melancholy of almost, not the wound of silence.
