Both films are directed by Isao Yukisada, and they both carry the outsider, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What GO is

Here we have a film about identity, as if there aren't enough of those. A Korean-Japanese teen grapples with prejudice and alienation. At least it's probably useful for high school teachers.
