In 2015, Tsai Ming-Liang was once again invited by the Hong Kong International Film Festival to make the opening short film. This time, he selected Shibuya station in Tokyo as his main filming location and invited the famous Japanese actor Masanobu Ando to appear alongside Lee Kang-Sheng. They sleep separately at a capsule hotel and cleanse themselves at a public bath. Their fatigued bodies yearn for sleep but restless minds keep them for falling asleep. "No No Sleep" won the Best Director Award at the Taipei Film Festival.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Tsai Ming-liang constructs a minimalist vignette, relying on extended static shots and the profound weight of silence. It explores a state of suspended animation, where urban fatigue becomes a tangible atmosphere.

What lingers after viewing is the haunting quiet of shared solitude and the elusive boundary between rest and wakefulness in the city's endless night. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Tsai Ming-liang
