首部長片《路邊野餐》摘下金馬奬及羅迦諾電影節最佳新導演，長達40分鐘的長鏡頭更是一時佳話;夢幻如詩的漂流影像，令畢贛成為現今最炙手可熱的年輕導演。新作成為年度最期待的作品，更被譽為今年康城最瘋狂最夢幻的體驗。黃覺回到貴州奔喪，憶起故友李鴻其，回想到12年前與神秘女子湯唯度過的神秘夏天，試圖追尋她的蹤跡。最後由2D走入3D，進入男主角的立體夢幻世界，那接近一小時的3D長鏡頭，將我們輕輕的推入深淵，帶我們慢慢在記憶遊走。電影創造了一個畢贛式的魔幻時空，擁有它獨特的語言、時間、空間 和記憶，宣示了中國第八代導演的崛起。

Bi Gan had the festival circuit buzzing in 2015 with his indie debut Kaili Blues, a B&W road film with a 40-minute long take. For his daring sophomore feature, the emerging auteur goes several steps further with a star cast and a climactic 55-minute take shot in 3D with complex camerawork. Bi stays in the southwestern Chinese county of Kaili for the stunning neo-noir about a lone man who returns to his hometown and searches for a mysterious past love. He wanders around town through fragmented memories of desire and danger, and then drifts into a mesmeric dream where a surreal journey of bold cinematic craftsmanship and abstractly layered storytelling awaits him and the audience.
