In a world where humanity has lost the ability to dream, one creature remains entranced by the fading illusions of the dreamworld. This monster, adrift in reverie, clings to visions no one else can see — until a woman appears. Gifted with the rare power to perceive these illusions for what they truly are, she chooses to enter the monster’s dreams, determined to uncover the truth that lies hidden within. Visionary filmmaker Bi Gan (Long Day’s Journey Into Night, Kaili Blues) delivers a one-of-a-kind cinematic experience, a love letter to the past, present and future of film.

“If we can’t stop time, cinema can give us a way to cheat it and burrow deeper into our imaginary lives onscreen. This is why the phrase “a love letter to cinema” is so frustratingly reductive; in Bi’s hands, the medium isn’t a moribund art but a magic trick.” ~ Leonardo Goi, Reverse Shot
