In this very special episode, Dhruv & Amartya welcome returning guest Simon Ezra to discuss three films representing three different Japanese Cinema styles. They try to go beyond championing the maze-like narrative structure of "Rashomon," the fruitful provocations of "In the Realm of the Senses," and the meditative pacing of "Drive My Car" to contextualize each film as part of a particular style that it started or came to be a part of.

Do listen for an in-depth & spoiler-filled discussion of all three films!
