Set in a bleak, industrial town in northern China, this film intricately weaves the lives of four disenchanted individuals over the course of a single day. Each character grapples with their own personal struggles and yearns for escape, with the mythical tale of an elephant that sits still serving as a symbol of hope and freedom. The film is the directorial debut of Bo Hu, who tragically passed away before its release, adding a poignant layer to its reception. Notably, the film received critical acclaim and won the FIPRESCI Prize at the Berlin International Film Festival. For those interested, it can be viewed for free on 123Movies / Movies123.
