# Stay Awake be ready, il picolo film sulle strade di Saigon

*Stay Awake be ready è il cortometraggio del cineasta vietnamita **Pham Thien An, pr**esentato alla **Quinzaine des réalisateurs 2019 di Cannes.*

*Un lungo piano sequenza della durata di quindici minuti. Sullo sfondo la vita di un quartiere di Saigon, un uomo che mangia ad un baracchino di strada, un ragazzino che gioca con il fuoco e poi un incidente stradale, una discussione tra alcuni uomini. **La telecamera accompagna l’azione con pochi movimenti, come se fosse lo spettatore. Pochi minuti di forte valenza ipnotica, un paesaggio musicale, una finestra su un mondo lontano ma tanto umano da esserne folgorati.*

*Un piccolo regalo alla nostra curiosità, un realismo magico alla maniera delle meravigliose pagine di Lawrence Osborne sull’Indocina, neutrale senza pregiudizi, nell’attesa di una prossima opera del giovane talento che ha fatto incetta di premi dovunque abbia presentato il proprio film. *
