What they share
Both films are directed by Yutaka Ikejima. If that's the register that drew you to The Japanese Wife Next Door, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Twilight Dinner is
Suburbs. Cicada-hiss, late summer. A crimson stain blossoming on tatami. Kazuhiko recounts a liaison with two sisters newly moved in across the way, a dalliance cut short by their sudden departure. A confession precedes their exit. The cops have questions. Ikejima delivers a J-horror mood piece with the pacing of a psychological thriller.
