About This Movie
Leaving the Zoo at Nightfall is a deep dive into the uncertainties of youth and dreams—set against the backdrop of a tense summer in 2020. The film has this languid pace, a bit meandering, which really captures the aimlessness of Kele and Wen, stuck in a moment of indecision. Xiaokang’s temporary job adds a nice contrast, grounding the narrative, while Po's obsession with photography brings a fresh perspective to everyday life. There's an almost raw quality to the performances; they feel genuine, as if you’re eavesdropping on real conversations. The atmosphere is thick with a sense of longing and quiet despair, making it resonate even more in these strange times.
