Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy
Hamaguchi I & II
April 26 - 30, 2024
In this rapturous, altogether delightful triptych of stories, a lively and intricately woven work of imagination that questions whether fate or our own vanities decide our destinies, Hamaguchi again proves he’s one of contemporary cinema’s most agile dramatists of modern love and obsession.
In this altogether delightful triptych of stories—the first of two features the director premiered in 2021—Hamaguchi again proves he is one of contemporary cinema’s most agile dramatists of modern love and obsession. Whether charting the surprise revelation of a blossoming love triangle, a young couple’s revenge plot against an older teacher gone awry, or a case of mistaken romantic identity, Hamaguchi details the sudden reversals, power shifts, and role-playing that define relationships new and old. Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy is both ironic and tender, a lively and intricately woven work of imagination that questions whether fate or our own vanities decide our destinies. An NYFF59 Main Slate selection. A Film Movement release.
