Hei'er

About This Movie

Hei'er is a curious blend of documentary that takes you on an unusual journey. The filmmaker uses a mannequin as a sort of silent companion, exploring the world through the lens of solar terms. It's not your typical documentary; the pacing is contemplative, almost meditative at times, which gives you space to absorb the visuals and ideas presented. The tone feels intimate, like a personal reflection rather than an overtly educational piece. The practical effects are minimal but impactful, emphasizing the mannequin's role in this exploration. Themes of time, nature, and human interaction come to the forefront, creating a distinct atmosphere that's both whimsical and profound. It's definitely one that leaves you thinking long after it ends.
