WELCOME TO MUBI

Things get weird in Amalia Ulman’s kaleidoscopic film, a colorful comedy of errors and an imaginative send-up of millennial media. Starring Simon Rex and Chloë Sevigny, this story of a frantic search for an internet sensation is electrified by wit, subversion, and distinctively fluorescent style.

Tending to still-open wounds left by the Vietnam War, Minh Quý Trương’s transfixing and redolent film excavates spectral histories, once buried under the sands of time. Lighting up the darkest pits of the earth, coruscating touches between furtive lovers burn with the fieriness of queer passions.

Dancing! Fashion! French Existentialism! Daisy von Scherler Mayer’s glittering time capsule of the ’90s club scene in downtown New York has it all. As a chronic reveler in search of another calling, Parker Posey fizzes with screwball charm in one of the most iconic films of her “Queen of Indie” era.

Ryusuke Hamaguchi’s intimate and immersive Happy Hour is one of the best films of the past decade. Equally devoted to the innermost feelings of its characters is his follow-up, Asako I & II, an entrancing, Vertigo-inspired romance mystery, featuring a lively soundtrack by J-Pop star Tofubeats.
