When will the light of the White Pagoda appear?

Light of the White Pagoda was released on October 27th, 2023/kloc-0.

Light of the White Pagoda is a feature film written and directed by Shinji, Huang Yao, Tian Zhuangzhuang, Antarctica and Wang Hongwei. The film was released in Chinese mainland on October 27th, 2023.

"The Light of the White Pagoda" tells the story that the patrons of middle-aged food bloggers, with the encouragement of young photographer Ouyang, make up with their father who has lost contact for more than 40 years, and discusses the emotional confusion of people in middle age.

In the film, Lv Zhang chooses the Miaoying Temple block in Beijing where he once played as the geographical coordinates of the protagonist's daily behavior, and the maze-like hutong becomes the psychological landmark of the character, and finally leads the heroine to the vast seaside. Poetry, philosophy, classic movies, emotional fluctuations from point to point, and many Beijing-featured buildings in the film all make a proper embellishment for this enduring film.

Comment on the film Light of the White Pagoda

The Light of the White Tower is very clever, which truly reflects the extremely unpredictable fate, and it is impossible to assert that everything will always be so perfectly balanced. But it does show that middle-aged life is both comfortable and disappointing. When the audience realizes all kinds of intangible and complicated connections, with the past, with the people on their own life track, and with the place they call home, these connections always make them feel a little comfort.

Zhang Lv, the director, has developed a subtle network of relationships around Gu, the protagonist of the film, with a light posture that is almost floating, which is rare in the cinema. Light of the White Pagoda is not about the huge shadow left behind a person, but a collection of many small shadows, which constitutes the moving and tragic complexity of life.
