If you loved The Fall of Ako Castle, try Baragaki: Unbroken Samurai

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

Theysit in Action / Drama / History territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Fall of Ako Castle, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Baragaki: Unbroken Samurai is

You live by the samurai code in a time of massive social change. But the old ways are dying. The emperor’s new guard closes in. Harada’s lens summons a bygone era. The film lingers on the tragic cost of loyalty.
