If you loved The Devil's Path, try Birds Without Names
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 Kazuya Shiraishi. If that's the register that drew you to The Devil's Path, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Birds Without Names is
The neon glare of a pachinko parlor at 3 AM. A woman traces a bruise she swears is still fresh. She waits by a payphone that never rings, tending to the ex-lover’s abandoned cat while his apartment stays dark. Don’t expect catharsis from Shiraishi’s steady, stifling gaze.
