SynopsisSélections & distinctions
A silent, black-and-white re-reading of The Third Wife. In late-19th-century Vietnam, 14-year-old May becomes the third wife of a wealthy landowner. Stripped of dialogue and carried by an original score, the film replays the tragedy of a forbidden desire like a picture book — a tribute to the golden age of silent cinema.
