Cu Li Never Cries

2024 93 min Vietnamese NC16
Wubly rating 6.8 IMDb rating 6.6

A woman tries to cling onto dimming links to her past after inheriting a pygmy slow loris from her long-estranged husband; meanwhile, her niece prepares for marriage as the young couple ponders their gloomy future together. The present and the complex echoes of Vietnamese history are entwined before a contemplative and poetic perspective.
