If you loved Gekijou, try The Cornered Mouse Dreams Of Cheese
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Isao Yukisada, and they both carry the outsider, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Gekijou, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Cornered Mouse Dreams Of Cheese is
A film that asks: what if a private investigator was also extremely thirsty? Kyoichi is being investigated by a PI, for cheating on his wife, but the PI has eyes for Kyoichi himself. It's a familiar setup, handled with considerable restraint.
