丈夫默许的隔壁人妻

　　在天眼尚未密布，监场保安仍会打瞌睡的二十世纪七十年代，名画大盗就是会光天化日，大剌剌走进美术馆，直接把猎物从墙上取下放入布袋运走。看似儿戏的一切，背后主谋还要是住在市郊、人畜无害的住家男人。凯莉·莱卡特完全弃用好莱坞盗宝片叙事公式，改以其擅长的左翼简约主义镜头，捕捉触犯艺术罪行者的日常生活、双面人的言行处境，以及事件周遭人情冷暖。阿瑟多夫的抽象画作未必是一个借口，但到头来凸显存在荒谬的公路逃亡，俨然为观众添加了不少欣赏和思考的层次。

　　《笔仙大战贞子2》讲述了美术学院学生夏柚（奚美丽饰），在与“姐妹团”佩洁（朱娅饰）、小依（王宇凝饰）、雯雯（林奕婧饰）聚会时候玩起了通灵游戏，阴差阳错之下招致了贞子的出现，伴随而来的还有噩梦和杀戮。被逼无奈之下，姐妹团决定召唤笔仙，一场中日鬼王之间的恶战再次掀起。

A little girl has secret superpowers but can’t use them when a highway project is threatening the nearby forest. Desperate to save it, she invents an elaborate lie about an endangered flying squirrel inhabiting the woods.

　　Following her mother’s death, manga artist Soriya travels to her ancestral home in Phnom Penh, with hopes of reconnecting with her distant family and using the visit as inspiration for her work. All goes well initially. Renting an apartment in Metta, a rundown Khmer Rouge-era housing complex, her visit to her maternal relatives finds her welcomed with open arms. But Soriya’s waking hours in the apartment and its surroundings are punctuated by terrifying, bloody visions, almost as though she were a conduit for horrors of the past wanting to seep into the present.　　Inrasothythep Neth and Sokyou Chea’s blood-chilling psychological horror explores a personal and political past through the present, transforming a characterful space into an insidious environment. Surrounded by modern high-rises, this decrepit structure, with its brutalist architecture and peeling surfaces, is a relic from a dark period in history whose painful memories it has absorbed. In tracing Soriya’s ominous journey back to her roots, Tenement hints at a necessary reckoning with Cambodia’s political past without overplaying its historical dimension. It’s an impressive work from a woefully underrepresented national cinema.
