One Million Yen Girl (2008)

One of the Camouflage stories is a prequel to the movie One Million Yen Girl, where Aoi Yu plays the main role. If you liked one you might be interested in the other.

Ambos tem um clima melancólico porém calmo, perfeito pra assistir quando vc esta meio depressivo. One Million Yen Girl mostra uma garota tentando fugir da vida e de pessoas que a conheçam, The Bride of Rip Van Winkle eh um tanto diferente, mostra uma mulher deixando a vida a levar, ela eh bem "passiva" entaum naum luta pelas coisas, mas talvez por sorte ela conseguiu ter bons momentos de tranquilidade e conforto.
Bem, os dois daum esse ar de tranquilidade e conforto, claro q tambem a momentos de intriga, mas em geral eh esse o sentimentos q esses filmes deixaum.

Women travelling! Slice of life. Solo travelling. Both really great!

Both Summer Strike and One Million Yen girl involves a young woman moving to a new place in order to search for their identity and live for themselves.
Both have
- Beautiful countryside cinematography
- Slice of Life , peaceful and quiet
- Female lead are both in their early 20's thus delves into problems and thoughts we face at that age

The main difference is One Million Yen girl is a movie. Summer strike is a drama. But if you like this genre of movie/drama, you should definitely check out both.

-Both works follow a similar premise of a young woman searching for their own way of life.

-They both have this slow, quiet, serene but reflective style.

- Gorgeous shots of nature, the countryside, stories about women.

The plot is similar in my opinion. While our MC in One Million Yen Girl moves around, the MC in Little Forest simply moves to a rural area (and Little Forest is focused on cooking while One Million Yen Girl isn't). But, I feel like both MC's are running away from themselves until eventually they come to face themselves. The vibes are pretty similar too: pleasant melancholy all around. Similar aesthetic and cinematography in my opinion too.
