The Chinese director Bi Gan, who has become a lauded fixture on the festival circuit, conjures a boundary-pushing tale that evokes moviemaking itself.

Ravishing in its command of shadow and light, but it studiously hollows out any sense of soul beneath the surface. 

Roger Ebert

'Resurrection' contains one of director Bi Gan's signature long takes — lasting 30 minutes — but the movie is also a euphoric, reference-laden expression of cinephilia.

Los Angeles Times

In a world where humanity has lost the ability to dream in exchange for eternal life, one creature remains entranced by the fading illusions of the dreamworld. This monster, adrift in reverie, clings to visions no one else can see - until a woman appears. As she allows him to dream one final time, his life of different identities is replayed as they journey through his century of existence.
