What a movie! Surreal, beautiful, hypnotic. After seeing this one (already among my all-time favourites) and Resurrection, Bi Gan is already among my top directors. The fact that he was so young when he did it (29 years old), is unbelievable; what an incredible talent!.
You don't know exactly what you are watching and trying to force a coherent narrative is futile, so if you are a person who needs these elements to enjoy a film, perhaps it's not the best option to choose from. But once the movie ends, it lingers with you and eventually it all makes perfect sense. I mean, perfect sense...and you'll be even more in awe.
It's about memory and dreams, and cinema. I don't want to give more details, because it will ruin the experience.
