If you loved The Last 10 Years, try The Village
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 Michihito Fujii, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Last 10 Years, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Village is
A coming-of-age drama without escape routes. A teenager plots to leave his isolated village, built around a mountainous landfill where generations have worked and disappeared. The weight of dust and duty tells the story, carried by a quiet performance that mirrors the suffocating stillness of 1990s rural Japan.
