Following his big leap forward with Ice Poison, Midi Z has now delivered a tightly edited and emotionally rewarding drama that places him in the top rank of Asian social realists. - Richard Kuipers, Variety\nThanks to Midi Z's brilliant command of visual metaphors and compassion for his subjects, [Mandalay] is elevated into an unnervingly immediate portrait of the human cost of displacement. - Patrick Gamble, CineVue\nCompassionate and honestly told, it is a real empathy machine of a movie. And, of course, you can't watch it without thinking of the desperate plight of Burma's Rohingya Muslims. --Cath Clarke, The Guardian\n\nTaiwanese director Midi Z pins docu-style heft to a resonant character drama about Burmese migrants in Bangkok. - Kevin Harley, Total Film\nA provocative and illuminating portrayal of people lost in the world. - Steven Nelsh, HeyUGuys\nZ effectively shows us the daily grind and takes us through one disappointment after another without ever ceasing to be engaging. --Jenny Kermode, Eye for Film\n\nProduct Description\n\nTwo Burmese immigrants flee their country's civil war in search of a new life in Thailand.
