If you loved Tokyo Olympiades, try La Harpe de Birmanie
Un pont entre un film que tu as déjà vu et un que peu de gens ont croisé. Voici ce qu'ils partagent, et ce que le second fait que le premier ne fait pas.
Ce qu'ils partagent
Both films are directed by Kon Ichikawa, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, slow burn, tender mood tags. If that's the register that drew you to Tokyo Olympiades, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What La Harpe de Birmanie is
You march through monsoon mud in a Japanese uniform, the war’s noise fading behind you, and then your unit vanishes from the radio. The jungle hums as you swap your rifle for robes to hide among monks. Kon Ichikawa’s camera watches the saffron folds swallow a rifle like a secret the wind won’t keep.
