Synopsis
Mr. Tree (Hello! 树先生, 2011) — watch online on iFILM. Director Han Jie's drama is set in a deteriorating Chinese village where Shu, a local drifter written off by his neighbours, is tormented by visions he can't separate from reality.
Then one of his hallucinations turns out to be accurate — and the village reframes him overnight as a prophet. Han Jie never settles the question: is Shu genuinely clairvoyant, genuinely ill, or running a quiet con on everyone around him? Wang Baoqiang plays the ambiguity almost entirely through stillness and a fixed gaze, which turns out to be exactly the right choice. Stream Mr. Tree online on iFILM.
