Trailer for Have a Nice Day, which was released to international markets as Hao ji le. Animated crime installment was screened at the Melbourne International Film Festival.
A desperate driver. A philosophical gangster. An ageing hitman. A bag of stolen money. Plus X-ray glasses! Have a Nice Day takes this recipe and runs with it, in this tale of Xiao Zhang, the driver who steals the fateful bag of money to help his girlfriend repair her botched plastic surgery, thus setting in motion a chain of chaotic events. As greed grips the citizens of this southern China ghost town and they fight to get their hands on the loot, the film spins into a magnetic portrait of destitution and the drive to escape it.
A funny, fresh and violent black comedy from director Liu Jian (2010's award-winning Piercing 1), Have a Nice Day debuted in competition at the Berlinale. With an eclectic ensemble of characters trying to get the upper hand on one another in the pursuit of the riches, Jian pulls back the curtain on a country struggling with the transition from communism to capitalism.
