The Great Buddha+ poster 01

Movie / 2017 / Comedy / Drama

The Great Buddha+

Why this pick

Like A Sun, this Taiwanese drama finds dark irony and deep compassion in lives pressured by class, family expectations, and institutional indifference; its patient observation steadily turns social detail into emotional weight.

Shoplifters poster 02

Movie / 2018 / Crime / Drama

Shoplifters

Why this pick

A quietly devastating family drama with the same humane attention to people at society’s edges, balancing everyday warmth against the consequences of secrecy, poverty, and parental responsibility.

Better Days poster 03

Movie / 2019 / Crime / Drama / Thriller

Better Days

Why this pick

Its tense, empathetic handling of vulnerable teenagers under immense social and familial pressure should suit A Sun’s blend of urgent consequences, moral ambiguity, and restrained emotional force.

The Guilty poster 04

Movie / 2018 / Crime / Drama / Thriller

The Guilty

Why this pick

For A Sun’s escalating tension and concern with guilt, this spare real-time thriller builds intense moral pressure through a single desperate intervention, while keeping its revelations carefully controlled.

The World of Us poster 05

Movie / 2016 / Drama

The World of Us

Why this pick

Though centered on children, its delicate, unsentimental view of exclusion, shame, and unspoken hurt shares A Sun’s gift for making ordinary family and school interactions quietly devastating.
