When I Fall Asleep, My Dream Comes is this beautifully crafted animation that pulls you into Liu Yi's exploration of dreams. The frame-by-frame ink wash technique gives it a unique visual texture, almost like a living painting. It oscillates between the personal and the fantastical, really diving deep into memories and alternate realities. The atmosphere is often melancholic, especially with the recurring motif of saying goodbye to a grandmother β it really embodies that bittersweet feeling. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing you to sit with the emotions. What stands out is how the practical effects, combined with the animation style, create this immersive yet haunting environment. Itβs different, you know? Not your everyday animated fare.
