Kaili Blues (2015)
10/10
The birth of a great director.
21 December 2021
There is the pitch: A man looks for his nephew mistreated by his brother. The scene is set in a small province Chinese town.

Then, there is the style. The long sequence shot in the middle of the movie is mindblowing. The talent, the timing it requires for shooting such a scene are incredible.

This style takes us in a strange country where memory, periods of time, people, names blend and mix to create a unique atmosphere.

If you let yourself drift in this journey you'll be mesmerized.

This movie is an emotion, an experiment in itself.

And if you like it you MUST watch Bi Gan 's second film: "Long Day's Journey into Night" , which is even more.a successful achievement.

Welcome Bi Gan in the club of great and unique directors/creators, such as Fellini or David Lynch.
