“Reminding the Stockholm syndrome “Accompany” presents a kidnapped girl and a

kidnapped villain. The silent film gradually reveals the loneliness and melancholic

disposition of both of them, without needing to explain their backgrounds. A pointless

journey becomes lingering like a road movie. The connection between a loser guy, a little

girl and a stray dog, as we all know, can’t evolve without the pain of being seperated.

“Accompany” conveys this very special, almost beautiful moment.”

“Joan broke up with her boyfriend and then downloaded a dating app. By the

recommendation of the application, it is matched with the stable man who is the

opposite of the ex-boyfriend, and the lonely Joan meets him. The blind date progresses

smoothly. However, she seems more and more frightened of the man who seems to

know so much about her.”
