Requiem

Requiem Chinese
Requiem is a movie that everyone must see at some point in their lives, especially in these enduring times where death is quick to take our loved ones. The movie is an adaption of a novel by the same name written by the author Zhou Daxin, and it deals entirely with the feeling of loss. The author himself lost his son at a very young age, and so it feels like he is writing it for himself before others. He is known for using a variety of techniques to provoke the motions contained in each of us, and the entire journey feels like a spiritual outlet from a Chinese perspective on the concept of death. It’s an experience that transcends even reality. The novel itself is recognized by many as an artifact of Chinese modern times, but the movie has even elevated that masterpiece to entirely new heights.

The Love Tree of Nanming

The Love Tree of Nanming Chinese

This movie has a touch of history to it. At its core, is a story about love, but its heavily intertwined with mythological legends and folk tales, and even the story occurs across two time periods between the past and the present with 700 years difference.
