Country: Vietnam
Directed by Quang Binh Nguyen Phan
'The floating lives 'is a well written and directed drama with solid characters who are built slowly as the movie goes on. The film depicts a world of not ending cruelty where everyone is haunted by a trauma that seems impossible to be healed. However, the hope always remains alive: at the end wins even if not with the way that someone could wish at first. The film captures the attention from the first seconds until the end , as the viewer gets easily involved psychologically with the main characters feelings and gets worried about their fate. Although the style of the film seems commercially westernized the director has to get a lot of credits as never tries to present the misery as attractive . nor he approaches his theme with a lot of emphasis on folklore , nor he uses the tricks of commercial melodramas to bring tears to the eyes of the viewers. I think that 'The floating lives' in reality is a nice combination of different cinematographic traditions
