THE GREAT BUDDHA+

《大佛普拉斯》

104 Minutes (feature)

Taiwan’s Entry for Best Foreign-Language Film at the 91st OSCARS®

Director & Writer: HUANG, Hsin-Yao, Cast: CHUANG, Cres / CHEN, Bamboo / DAI, Leon, Producers: YEH, Ju Feng / CHUNG, Mong-Hong

Underlining the gap between have-nots' lives and elites' world by switching between black and white and glamorous colors, THE GREAT BUDDHA+ vividly illustrates a corrupted village in rural southern Taiwan with memorable style, heartfelt empathy, and whimsical humor. Security guard Pickle and his trash collector friend Belly Button kill time together in night shifts watching the American-educated boss's dash-cam recordings of his various sexual encounters with women. Against the buddies’ will, something horrifying rather than erotic reveals.

“...the most important film from Taiwan since Yi Yi (Edward Yang).”

— Look Chi Man, HK01

“...the viewer is at once dismayed by the cruelty of this society & seduced by Mr. Huang’s smooth and witty style.”

— A.O.Scott, New York Times

“…a memorable debut from an uncompromising new voice in Taiwanese cinema.”

—James Marsh, South China Morning Post

“As savagely satirical as it is gorgeously surreal, “The Great Buddha+” is something else again — an outrageous, poignant punk Taiwanese black comedy marking the feature arrival of fresh filmmaking talent Huang Hsin-Yao.”

—Michael Rechtshaffen, Los Angeles Times

“An audacious and funny switch to features casting a sharp eye on social inequality... it will introduce many American cinephiles to a voice they'll hope to hear from again very soon.”

—John DeFore, Hollywood Reporter
