After having roved for a long time,
Phuoc decides to stop at the restaurant White Night
with the hope of finding a job and enjoying some quiet albeit for a short time. Shortly after, however, he understands the upsetting order the owner of the restaurant has set up. He is also the controlling father of Chu, the only shining soul within the crumbling walls confining the workers. By employing a rarefied and nocturnal style, and a lush and shadowy colour palette at the same time, even if it is broken by bright flashes from time to time, a story develops soaked with passion and jealousy, desire for redemption and violence, quest for independence and stability of feelings. It is a stop in a place of transition like the one the title evokes, which is at the same time concrete and metaphorical. One bumps into it while roving through the darkness of a white night where reality cannot be distinguished by one’s inner world.
