Don't Come Back from the Moon
Directed by Bruce Thierry Cheung
A haunting, dreamlike meditation on masculine absence and abandonment in a desert town, where the inexplicable vanishing of men leaves women and children to navigate a surreal, melancholic landscape.
The men of a small town on the edge of nowhere mysteriously disappear, one by one, leaving women and children behind to fend for themselves in a desolate and dreamlike world.
