Resurrection

The year is 2068: humanity has unlocked the secret to eternal life, but to do so, people have had to give up the ability to dream. However, there is a creature, a Delirant, who has never stopped dreaming, for it is precisely those dreams that offer him time and again the chance to experience something entirely new. A mysterious woman is searching for the creature. She intends to awaken the Delirant, because through his actions the boundary between dream and reality is beginning to blur. When she discovers that he is hiding in a silent film, she uses her gift to enter his dream. And so she follows him through several very different films.

In Buddhism, six senses are distinguished: sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch and mind. Each of the six parts of this imaginative and award-winning film by Chinese director Bi Gan corresponds to a sense. The result is a visually enchanting journey through film history, exploring the nature of reality and identity.
