Come into My Dreams

About This Movie

So, 'Come into My Dreams'—it's one of those films that really digs into the whole father-son dynamic and grief. The pacing is slow, almost dreamlike, which fits perfectly with Cheng Yi's struggle to come to terms with his father's death. The atmosphere is thick with melancholy, made even more poignant by the daughter's observations of her father's decline. There’s this subtle way they depict the funeral rituals that feel surreal yet grounded, honestly a bit haunting. The performances carry a weight that draws you in, especially when you notice the little details that hint at their strained relationship. It's not flashy, but it sticks with you, and makes you think about familial bonds and the process of letting go.
