If you loved Under the Open Sky, try Sway

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 Miwa Nishikawa, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Under the Open Sky, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Sway is

You await your brother home in rural Japan, burdened by past resentments. But a sudden tragedy exposes the gulf between your lives. Nishikawa understands how unspoken tensions strain kinship. The film lingers on doubt.
