Hana Ikusa (2007)

This is a movie based on the true story of Mineko Iwasaki who has written a book about her life called "Geisha of Gion" (also known as: Geisha, a Life). If you don't know, that's the book where Arthur Golden based his book "Memoirs of a Geisha" on and later the movie with the same name was based on. Specially if you like that movie you should watch this one too. I like both movies a lot but this movie stays more true to the real story of Mineko Iwasaki. I find the story really interesting and it gives you a good view of how the life of a Geisha is with all it's traditions.
