After studying in North America, Chinese Lai Yuqing made several short films and is now launching her Cambodian debut Whisperings of the Moon at #Busan2025 WoAC. Shot on rough handheld video, the film never really manages to rise above the level of a clumsy essay, like a kind of cheap queer therapy.
After winning awards in 2017 Brussels and 2019 Tallinn, Japan-based Indian filmmaker Anshul Chauhan returns to #Busan2025 to launch Tiger at Vision. Following an engaging first part, the lengthy drama settles down and remains (too) gently pink and predictable to really stand out.
Awarded in Goa and Hong Kong as WIP, Indian Tribeny Rai presents her debut Shape of Momo at #Busan2025 Vision & #SanSebastian2025 ND for Celluloïd Dreams. The return of a young woman to a village in the Himalayas provokes reflections on the place of women. The setting is authentic, that's about all.
🎬 Some absolute bangers premiering at this year’s Busan International Film Festival:
– No Other Choice (Park Chan-wook wildness incoming)
– The Great Flood (dystopian sci-fi)
– Black Rabbit, White Rabbit (mystery vibes)

Discovered at Locarno and then Cannes Critics Week, Chinese Zhang Lu presents his fifteenth film, Gloaming in Luomu, at #Busan2025 comp. Both gentle and intense, the film reveals an amusing ghostly poetry that could charm audiences beyond the specialists. Better than his 2023 Berlinale comp entry.
Scotland-based Iranian Hassan Nazer has only been invited to Fribourg once in six films. He is presenting Without Permission at #Busan2025 comp for DreamLab. An attempt at experimental cinema about cinema with children, the political ambition struggles to convince – even when invoking Kiarostami.
Iranian Shahram Mokri presented a third interesting film at Orizzonti in 2020. Black Rabbit, White Rabbit, his fourth, Tajik but still as long, is launched at #Busan2025 Vision for DreamLab. The romantic and experimental ambition, under-exposed this year, is further thwarted by overly loose editing.
Following their debut Beyond in 2013, Kyrgyz Erke Dzhumakmatova and the late Emil Atageldijev present Kurak at #Busan2025 Vision. With two rather unoriginal stories artificially intertwined, this gently feminist and ambitious film, co-produced by half a dozen European companies, accumulates blunders
Best emerging director at Locarno FotP 2016, Japan's Mariko Tetsuya presents Dear Stranger at #Busan2025 WAC for EST N8 after its release in Japan. A long family suspense in clumsy English, this multicultural film never quite hits the mark – despite the star of Drive My Car and the French editor.
Tetsuya Mariko’s Dear Stranger premieres at #BIFF2025. A family in NYC is torn apart after their son vanishes. Starring Hidetoshi Nishijima & Gwei Lun-Mei. #Busan2025 #DearStranger wix.to/naZ0HP9 #FilmPremiere #DearStranger #Busan2025
