YesAsia Editorial Description

Chinese author Hu Bo's first and last feature An Elephant Sitting Still won Best Film and Best Adapted Screenplay at the 55th Golden Horse Film Awards and the FIPRESCI Award at the 68th Berlin Film Festival. The writer-director, who died of suicide before the film's release, adapted his own story into a melancholic masterpiece of bleak, elegaic realism. The four-hour film follows four desperate, wayward souls over one long and eventful day from dawn to dusk.

Bullied teen Wei Bu (Peng Yuchang) faces abuse both at home and at school. His classmate Huang Ling (Wang Yuwen) gets exposed online for her affair with a teacher. Wei Bu's aged neighbor Wang Jin (Li Congxi) is being pressured into a retirement home by his family. Gangster Yu Cheng (Zhang Yu), the older brother of Wei Bu's bully, must deal with the terrible consequences of sleeping with his friend's wife. These four tormented souls all become fascinated with the story of an elephant in the Inner Mongolia city of Manzhouli that sits still with its eyes closed, oblivious to all that surrounds it.

榮獲第55屆金馬獎最佳劇情片、最佳改編劇本獎。

4個人為了躲避麻煩，都前往傳说中滿洲里坐著不動的大象那裡，找尋情感的出口。

在一個中國北方小鎮的陰鬱天空下，四位主角的人生，交織在這個虛無與憤怒的悲哀故事裡。

為了保護好友，中學男孩韋布不慎讓校園惡霸，失足摔落樓梯命在旦夕，一時失措便離家逃亡；老翁王金，韋布的鄰居，因名下老屋成了兒女覬覦的籌碼，而悵然若失、了無所依。女孩黃玲，韋布的同學，與學校的副主任踰矩親密的影片被惡意外流，而鬧出軒然大波。于城，校園惡霸的哥哥，原想為自己的兄弟報仇，卻意外深陷一場自我背叛的罪惡痛苦之中。四個人，從清晨到黃昏，數不盡的麻煩與苦悶，全都發生在這狼狽崎嶇的一天，看起來像在尋找出口似的卻老往死裡鑽。

他們的困頓與時間的流動，晦澀；他們的希望和生命的交錯，卻是寄託於一篇聽來的傳說：在遙遠的滿洲里，有一頭席地而坐的大象。這傳說，彷彿成了他們的亂世浮木與救贖。四個小時的時間跨度，大量一鏡到底的攝影機流動，針扎般勾勒出的敘事縫線，儼然成為看似無波的殘酷世界裡，直擊心臟最強而有力的一聲象鳴。

主要演員：彭昱暢、王玉雯、章宇、李叢喜
