Memoria
An obsession with strange sounds causes a woman (Tilda Swinton) to think about their appearance in the latest film from Apichatpong Weerasethakul, writer-director of the Palme d'Or-winning Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives.
A Scottish orchid farmer visiting her ill sister in Bogota, Colombia, befriends a young musician and a French archaeologist in charge of monitoring a century-long construction project to tunnel through the Andes mountain range. Each night, she is bothered by increasingly loud bangs which prevent her from getting any sleep.
