Life of Cloud
0 votes
Throughout his life, CHEUNG Tak-hung is obsessed with creating his own cloud. After an untimely cardiac attack, CHEUNG wakes up and finds himself onboard a flight of the Afterlife Airline, and learns that the destination depends on the testimonies of the witnesses, who will determine whether CHEUNG has led a meaningful life. Will CHEUNG be able to find someone who approves of his life as a cloudmaker and send him to the realm of eternal bliss? With cloud as an allusion to dream/life, the thought-provoking short features a strong cast including CHU Pak-hong, Kaki SHAM and Candice YU On-on, against a fantastic set design reminiscent of Michel GONDRY’s dreamscapes.
