The dream of a goldfish to return into its wild form uproars her long-forgotten memories, and a self-conscious monsoon is about to be uninhibited.

Program Note

The raw lines and delicate animation grab the viewer’s attention from the very beginning. We follow the main character across painterly scenes, breathing in the welcome Hong Kong cityscape. I’ve seen many films about social problems that had a direct message, but there is a soft spot in my heart for a film that uses animals as a metaphor. They call attention to problems like the lack of concern for safety that pervades our everyday lives. This film feels like an evacuation order from a city falling into melancholy. SEO Pyoungwon
