If you loved The Munekata Sisters, try A Hen in the Wind

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 Yasujirō Ozu, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Munekata Sisters, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What A Hen in the Wind is

Arthouse neorealism meets domestic pressure cooker. A war widow’s child takes ill and her pennies vanish so she trades a night for coins. Husband comes home to confess and they face the fallout together. Ozu frames quiet devastation with the weight of unspoken shame.
