Millennial auteur Bi Gan (Kaili Blues, Long Day's Journey Into Night) re-enters the neon-soaked landscape of contemporary China with his most audacious film yet, a cinephilic vision of a dream-deprived future.
Set in a world where most of humanity has lost the ability to dream, Resurrection follows the Deliriant, a rare individual who still dreams, and the woman hunting him. But this is merely the setup for a phantasmagoric journey through cinema, as the Deliriant revisits a century of history through four different dreams, each told with a distinct film style.
