If you loved The Idiot, try Dodes'ka-den
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 Akira Kurosawa, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Idiot, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Dodes'ka-den is
Tokyo shantytown squats on a dump’s fringe. A kid steers a cardboard trolley past cardboard homes while a dad sketches his son a palace from scrap. Fists fly inside thin walls. Kurosawa lets scraps breathe tragedy and tenderness until forward looks almost possible.
