If you loved Wandering, try Kokuho

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 Sang-il Lee, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Wandering, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Kokuho is

*Amadeus* in kabuki theater. After his yakuza father dies, young Kikuo apprentices with a kabuki master alongside the man's son. Decades pass as they rise in the ranks, each vying to become the greatest. A showcase for classic Japanese stagecraft.
