For his stylistically mischievous feature directorial debut, Nguyễn Lê Hoàng Phúc plays with split screens, circular frames and every other visual trick a young filmmaker might think of to create an eccentric and utterly captivating drama. When an old man catches a young burglar in his home, the old man gives the would-be criminal an unusual task: Bring a plaster cast carrying the body of his long-deceased wife to the couple's resting place in the desert. Despite the macabre premise, this visually vibrant film is a surprisingly warm genre-blending exercise about grief.
