In a post-apocalyptic world where dreaming is no longer possible, a woman discovers that a mysterious creature-a man-monster embodying cinema itself-can still dream. By entering his dreams, she embarks on a dizzying journey through the 20th century, where China's history intersects with the evolution of the seventh art. Following the mesmerizing Long Day's Journey Into Night (2018), the enfant terrible of Chinese cinema returns with this ambitious baroque opera starring Shu Qi and Jackson Yee, and crowned with a Special Jury Prize at the latest Cannes Festival. Thanks to a virtuosic direction, Resurrection stands as a hypnotic labyrinth, a sensory fresco that celebrates dreaming as the ultimate space of freedom. Traversing the silent film era and offering a flamboyant homage to cinema's earliest days, this extraordinary work rekindles the original magic of the seventh art and its power to astonish.
