Director Pham Thien An wins the Caméra d'Or (Golden Camera) at the 76th Cannes Film Festival in May 2023.

The movie tells a story about Thien who, after his sister-in-law dies in a freak motorcycle accident in Ho Chi Minh City, is tasked to bring her remains to their countryside hometown for her funeral and take care of his 5-year-old nephew Dao who miraculously survived the crash.

Amid the mystical landscapes of rural areas in Vietnam, Thien begins a search for his elder brother who vanished years ago to hand Dao over to him - a journey which deeply questions his faith.

Audiences are enjoying Vietnamese movie “Inside the yellow cocoon shell” at Luxor cinema, Paris.

According to the audiences, An's supremely accomplished first feature may seem narratively slender for its three-hour runtime, but its layered abundance of sensory detail casts an unshakable spell.

The Vietnamese movie is being screened in several cinemas in France such as MK2 Beaubourg, Reflet Medicis, Le Méliès, Forum des Images and Luxor.
