Synopsis
The Vertical Ray of the Sun
Hanoi comes across almost picture-perfect in director Tran Anh Hung's beautiful, elegiac tale about the lives and loves of three Vietnamese sisters. A mood characteristic of Hung's films is set early on with the vivid sounds of birds, insects and water and the way the lighting enhances the subtle use of color. They all combine to gem-like effect here.
Two Worlds One Wish
In 1998, on New Year's Eve, Bilge and Can met as children in a hospital, forging a profound, magical bond. Years later, Bilge became a successful lawyer, and Can an acclaimed archaeologist. Fate eventually brought them back together, but this reunion would put the strength of their unique, shared history to the ultimate test.
