P-047 (2011) Synopsis

Lek and Kong work side by side at the shopping mall. Lek is a lonely locksmith, and Kong is an aspiring writer. When Kong comes up with a plan to put Leks lock picking skills to good use, the two start breaking into other peoples homes, not to steal anything but just to bask temporarily in the lives of others. One day, Kong pries too deeply into someone elses life, and things grow rather complicated.Recalling Christopher Nolan by way of Wong Kar-wai, P-047 beautifully weaves together flashbacks, fantasy sequences and fragmented memories into a film that is part meditation, part multilayered mystery and utterly fascinating.
