The UHF of the film world.

Ho Tzu Nyen's Home premiered as part of this years Director's Fortnight lineup at Cannes and now we have a trailer. This looks like a fantastic quiescent existential meandering and while I could talk more I'll let the logline do it: A television switches on. A mind snaps. A man discovers his murdered wife. As he stares at her lifeless body, the events leading to her death play before him, like in a movie. Be sure to check out the trailer. I like when the crazy guy talks about the rocketship.

HERE follows the journey of He Zhiyuan, a middle-aged man who struggles to make sense of his reality. Reeling from the sudden death of his wife, he loses the will to speak and is interned at Island Hospital. There, he meets strident kleptomaniac Beatrice with whom he forms an inexplicable bond. As He adjusts to life within, he is selected for an experimental treatment, which forces him to confront the devastating truth behind his past, present, and Future. Meanwhile, a filmmaker visits Island Hospital to document the lives of the staff and patients.

Trailer after the break.
