Question for Director Chen

I noticed there are different colors of light spots throughout the film, some of them even covered a half of the frame. Are they aimed to create a sense of ‘dream’? Also, may I ask why the background is set in Cambodia? Does this place imply anything related to the plot itself? Besides, I have watched a film focused on ‘dreams’ before. And how the director of that film created a sense of dream was through filters, like higher saturation of color and a blurring effect. Have you thought of those effects when making this film?

    It takes some effort to make a dream feeling without looking inauthentic. I avoid certain effects but try other ways, through colors, lights, editing, and other things.
