Rainbow Without Colours
2015 · 1h 30m · Drama
This is a thoughtful drama about parental acceptance and grief that tackles heavy themes with cultural specificity, but the 6.3 IMDb score suggests it doesn't quite stick the landing. Skip it unless you're specifically hunting for Vietnamese cinema or supernatural family dramas.
Plot
It was a full moon day in July, a day on which many Vietnamese believe spirits of the dead can return home. Mrs Yen was sleeping and she dreamt about Hung -- her elder, adopted son, who died many years ago. Why is Hung’s spirit returning? Is it to seek revenge for his death? -- Mrs. Yen’s dream is a consequence of the relationship between her biological son and her adopted son. When they announced their love to the family, Mrs. Yen was devastated. She could not accept it and her efforts to keep them apart may have driven Hung to his death. In Vietnam, as elsewhere, parents are sure they know what’s best for their children. But the spirits may not be convinced...
