Bury Us in a Lone Desert, dir. Nguyễn Lê Hoàng Phúc, Vietnam 2025, 62 mins., Vietnamese with English subtitles
Book tickets
A burglar and the owner of a house he attempts to rob set out on a journey across Vietnam to the homeowner’s wife’s grave where he wishes to join her, with her papier-maché effigy in tow.
At once a Western, melodrama, and buddy comedy, and set to a rapturous score by Tomes, Nguyễn Lê Hoàng Phúc’s remarkably warm and curious film is a novel consideration of love, grief, and friendship.
The UK premiere on Friday 2 May is followed by an online Q&A with Nguyễn Lê Hoàng Phúc.
