Before and After Yang

Tonight MG takes on the first two films by indie director Kogonada -

- one set in modern-day Indiana,

the other set in a futuristic world and dealing with artificial intelligence

- they are equally thoughtful, unusual stories.

First up is Columbus, set in that unlikely architectural Mecca of the Midwest, and stars John Cho in a career-best performance as a man dealing with his father's impending death.

Next, we have After Yang, in which Colin Farrell wrestles with the meaning of memory in a beautifully sci-fi way!
