The definition of melancholy. A dense, pessimistic, claustrophobic movie. Everything here is sad and contemplative, with cold images and a minimalist soundtrack that has an almost funereal tone. This movie is a very difficult and sensitive experience to watch.
Aesthetically, it's a movie that favors long sequence scenes, scenes that are difficult to pull off because they involve changes of environment and even long conversations and interactions, all with great performances from the entire cast, the lighting is natural, everything here is dark, organic and very raw, showing the creativity and talent of director Hu Bo.
