If you loved The River, try The Hole
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 Tsai Ming-liang, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to The River, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
slow burn
What The Hole is
Tsai Ming-liang makes a splash with apocalypse. A lone man deals with a plumbing issue and a hole in his floor. It fills with water and awkwardness.
