LONG DAYS JOURNEY IN NIGHT
"An atmospheric, tropical film noir." — The New York Review of Books
"Watching it feels like dreaming with your eyes open." — New York Times

Luo Hongwu returns to Kaili, the hometown from which he fled 12 years earlier. As memories of an enigmatic and beautiful woman resurface — a woman he loved and whom he has never been able to forget — Luo Hongwu begins his search for her. Past and present, reality and dream interweave in Bi Gan's stunningly beautiful and highly innovative film noir.
