Film Details
Lilting
United Kingdom | 2014 | Hong Khaou
An elderly Chinese-Cambodian woman (Cheng Pei-Pei) living in a London assisted-living facility and grieving for her recently deceased son is visited by another young man (Ben Whishaw) who shares her grief. This “friend” of her son wants to connect with his late lover’s mother, but since she doesn’t speak English and didn’t know that her child was gay, there are major language and cultural barriers to surmount. “Delicate and unhurried…Wears its stylistic debt to In the Mood for Love on its elegant sleeve.” –Hollywood Reporter.
