RESURRECTION

In a world where dreams have vanished from human life, only one being remains captivated by the remnants of the dreamworld. This mysterious creature drifts through visions invisible to all—until it encounters a woman with the rare gift to see them clearly. Drawn to the truth hidden within, she enters the creature’s dreams, embarking on a journey that blurs the line between reality and illusion. 

RESURRECTION is a spellbinding testament to Bi Gan’s visionary artistry, unfolding in six chapters that evoke the five human senses and more. Seamlessly blending expressionism, film noir, intimate human drama, and moments of pure cinematic magic, the film is as enigmatic as it is breathtaking. From a tender father-daughter thread to a jaw-dropping, technically brilliant long take—and yes, even vampires—Bi crafts an otherworldly odyssey that redefines cinematic possibility, inspiring audiences and future filmmakers alike to dream once more on the silver screen, which Bi-diehards have been coming along with KAILI BLUES (2015) and LONG DAY’S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT (2018). His cinematic sandbox is limitless.
