An Unfinished Film(2024)

Overview

Chinese auteur Lou Ye tackles the seismic disruption brought by COVID through an exhilarating blend of drama and documentary. In An Unfinished Film, a fictional crew stumbles upon 10-year-old footage of a (real) aborted queer film and sets about reuniting the cast to complete it with a new act. But this is early 2020, and fate has other ideas – the unexpected comes crashing down on Wuhan, the film is halted again and the project eventually morphs into something else entirely.
