In a world where humans have lost the desire to dream, a rogue society of “fantasmers” delves even deeper into their subconscious. Spanning decades and adopting a variety of film styles across its five chapters, this feast for the senses is capped off with one of Bi Gan’s characteristically virtuoso, serpentine ultralong takes. Named one of the ten best films of 2025 in The New Yorker, Sight & Sound, and Indiewire. “Electric, dramatic, fantastic… Resurrection is a cinephile’s delight” (Manohla Dargis, The New York Times). 

Admission free for all screenings, seating limited. No admission 15 minutes after scheduled start times. Please visit our website for a complete listing of programs and descriptions.
