Burning Ghost (2019) User Reviews

A Romantic, Bizarre and Meditative look at Dead Lovers

[roger-99-171599 · 7/10 · 26 February 2020]

A young man's ghost wanders through the city meeting up other dead folks and helping them get thru the process of understanding and adapting to their condition. A longtime lover is able to see (and feel) him, developing an eccentric, romantically surreal relationship, as he tries to recall his past feelings. Stéphane Batut's seductive and enigmatic feature debut is a captivating look at how we're easily able to forgive and forget, let go and re-adapt while dealing with the inevitable cycle of life.

...or meditative or poetic or eccentric. A seductive portrait of afterlife and sentimental connections or hope or forgiveness . Romantic and provocative. Moving. Short, a film who you deserve as good stop of time, for reflecting about life, for the need of special fairy tales.

Outstanding! What a treat: a poem, a short story, a thought. This movie feels like a painted dream, so soft and sensible and modest too. Perfect and creative photography, simple and clear script, yet surprising at times. Actors are lovable. A little bit bombastic score but beautiful!
