    Here are mine:
    Suicide Club by Sion Sono
    Noriko's Dinner Table by Sion Sono
    Strange Circus by Sion Sono
    Hazard by Sion Sono
    Kids Return by Kitano Takeshi
    Hana-bi by Kitano Takeshi
    Almost any film by Kitano Takeshi.
    Cure by Kurosawa Kiyoshi
    None of these are really teenage focused to the extent of All About Lily Chou Chou. Nevertheless they all have the concept of escapism and all have the similar abstract and surreal style.

          Shinji Aoyama films are somewhat similar in an Art-house perspective.
          Kim Ki Duk films, Samaria, 3-Iron, Spring Summer Fall Winter Spring, Time, and Bad Guy.
          Taste of Tea by Katsuhito Ishii
          Other films by Shunji Iwai such as Picnic and Love Letter.
          All of Wong Kar Wai films.
          Bright Future and Tokyo Sonata by Kiyoshi Kurosawa.
          And you must watch the films of Lee Chang Dong, Secret Sunshine, Peppermint Candy and Oasis.

              Confessions (Kokuhaku). It was incredible. Let me know what you think, if you watch it.

                Not really about escapism but about bullying: After Lucia

                  Haven't found anything similar to Lily Chou-Chou but certainly check out the director's other films. I would recommend Swallowtail Butterfly and Hana and Alice.
                  The only film I've watched that topped this one was Sion Sono's Love Exposure.

                      To everyone who replied with rad recommendations: you rock. So happy to see like minded filmgoers geeking out over amazing films together 🙂
                      My one recommendation, bit late to the party, would have to be Anno Hideaki's 'Love and Pop'. Shot in a crazy, brilliant experimental style and concerns a group of young high school girls who dip their toes into the world of teenage prostitution, much like Tsuda from Lily Chou-Chou. Explores a (then) contemporary concern from every angle and with some brilliant cinematic allegories.
