#LIMBO 2021 SERIAL#
Forgiveness is the path to righteousness and living an morally and ethically just life. Star Vikash Bhai chats about taking on the role of a cheerful refugee and getting in touch with Queens music in his upcoming heartfelt comedy, Limbo. Limbo follows seasoned cop Jin (Hong Kong Film Award winner Lam Ka Tung) and a rookie partner (Mason Lee) as they track down an elusive serial killer. Misty reluctantly becomes a sexy radio podcast host when she discovers shes dead and faced. No character goes unscathed, and ultimately Limbo suggests in a sense that we as people are all just victims of the cruelty of our environment, some are just more malleable than others, and yet it ultimately we as individuals are autonomous and have the freedom to choice to be better and it is never too late to do so. The serial killer is merely a device deployed to elucidate such themes, a manifestation of evil which is largely faceless yet it is suggested that he too perhaps is sculpted by his experience which drove him towards such unrestrained violence. This is one mean thriller that manages to be emotionally effective due in large part to its distinct characterizations and how it exhibits their interconnectivity. Rookie policeman Will Ren and his partner, the veteran cop Cham Lau, are pursuing an obsessive and especially brutal murderer of women. A seedy, impressionistic crime thriller that lives in the dirt, dealing with themes related to the fine-line between order and chaos, the aesthetics of violence as it pertains to retributive justice, and the malleability of the human psyche when confronted with abject depravity in a cruel and unforgiving world. The formal style is as precise and accomplished as one would expect, crafting a truly unique vision from a general conception that is familiar. Two detectives hunt a serial killer who murders women and cuts off their left hands. The high contrast black and white aesthetic projects a myriad of lucid imagery which at times borders on otherworldly. Limbo is a descent into the garbage hell of Hong Kong. Feels like a dream, or better yet, a vivid nightmare.
