If you loved The Munekata Sisters, try Floating Weeds
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 both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, 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 Floating Weeds is
Ugly duckling melodrama meets Ozu’s static gaze. A touring theater’s impresario reunites with a former lover, then watches his itinerant family and fraught inheritance collapse. Late 50s Japan in a single, serene long shot.
