About

In a future where humanity has given up dreaming, a monster hides in films until a woman uses lost cinema techniques to reach him.

Resurrection is set in a future where humanity has given up dreaming. Jackson Yee plays the Deliriant, a monstrous creature who hides inside movies so that he can continue to dream. Shu Qi plays the woman who finds him there and uses the lost techniques of cinema to let him dream. In those dreams the Deliriant takes on different identities and relives a century of his existence across four dreams. Bi Gan directed the film, which also features Mark Chao as the Commander.
