Description

A prize winner at the Sundance Film Festival, LILTING finds acclaimed actors Ben Whishaw (SKYFALL) and Cheng Pei Pei (CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON) connecting through a translator who helps them figure out the shared bond between them and how to recuperate from loss. A touching and at times amusing look at the ways we communicate when we don't share a common language, but share a common love. LILTING is a tale of healing and understanding.

    Loved the movie. Ben Whishaw is an incredibly talented actor and effortlessly made his character believable. Have your Kleenex box at your side.

    That’s what Andrew Leung(Kai) said about the story. So brilliantly told, this story will break your heart. Kai and Richard have a love few ever find. (And I think there was something about a mother???) Am downloading the movie now, into my personal library.

    I saw this film twice in the theaters and fell in love twice over. The candor of the performances is heart-breakingly real. The cinematography is gorgeous. It is much like snowfall- beautiful to witness in the slow progression of gathering and gathering until you don't realize that you're suddenly surrounded by crystalline perfection. A must-see for anyone who has loved and lost and found solace in the unlikeliest of places. A wonderful film. Full marks all around.
