The Futora

Original title: 光浮区

The film follows an unidentified ghostly entity that travels through nocturnal shimmer. It is an ‘egregore’, a collective being formed by unconscious memories. Inspired by 1980s and 1990s Chinese children’s science fiction media, the film reimagines electricity not just as infrastructure, but as a living force. The images drift through the peripheral glimmers of a nocturnal city, where unfinished imaginings of the future slip into another world.
