Oozing atmosphere with its noirish neon glow, Long Day’s Journey Into Night chronicles the return of Luo Hongwu to Kaili, the hometown he fled many years before. Back for his father's funeral, Luo recalls the death of an old friend, Wildcat, and searches for lost love Wan Qiwen, who continues to haunt him.

Sculpting time and space through virtuosic technical feats, Bi's film yields successive visual and aural delights. 
A hushed, hypnotic study of hazy memory, lost time, and flight - and featuring the formidable Sylvia Chang as Wildcat's mother - Long Day's Journey Into Night leads the viewer on a nocturnal, labyrinthine voyage, one that both reveals and conceals a world of passion and intrigue.

Originally released in 2020, Long Day’s Journey Into Night returns to the big screen to celebrate the arrival of Bi’s latest adventure into the far reaches of cinematic possibility – Resurrection screens on general release from Fri 13 Mar.
