Jet Lag

Zheng Lu Xinyuan

2022, Switzerland/Austria, 111 min., Mandarin, English, Burmese with English subtitles

Because of the sudden covid-19 outbreak in 2020, the director and her girlfriend Zoe got stuck in Austria. Enduring the lock-down, they dug into the family mystery of Zheng’s Great Grandpa through a VHS tape and footage that she shot 2 years back in Myanmar. Jet lag is an intimate and stunning family portrait, boldly combined with reflections on the political conflicts in Myanmar.
