If you loved The Man from the Sea, try Hospitalité

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 Koji Fukada, and they both carry the outsider mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Man from the Sea, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Hospitalité is

Such a polite little home-invasion comedy, in which a quiet printer and his wife find their meticulously ordered lives gently dismantled by an enthusiastic stranger. The stranger moves in uninvited, adopting them faster than they can protest, while the Tokyo outskirts watch with folded arms. It’s less a burglary than a cultural exchange gone hilariously overboard.
