Back Home

Heung Wing sees ghosts. Which is why he left his native city of Hong Kong a long time ago and built a new life in Canada – and hoped that the haunting would end there. Only when his mother falls into a coma after a failed suicide attempt does he return to Hong Kong. There, the ghosts catch up with him and suddenly become more threatening than ever. With Back Home, director Nate Ki delivers one of the year's most anticipated films from Hong Kong. This is thanks to the surprising combination of horror and southern Chinese mythology. A mixture between our world and the realm of the dead that has never been seen before. (Zurich Film Festival)
