About 13
In "13," visionary Hong Kong New Wave director Patrick Tam delivers his final TV work, an 11-episode anthology series that dives into surreal and darkly comic narratives. Although originally slated for 13 episodes, each standalone story explores eerie undercurrents of everyday life. Highlights include a couple discovering a corpse in their apartment, a schoolteacher uncovering the unsettling truth about her hosts, and a strained summer romance influenced by a mysterious housekeeper. "13" mixes black comedy with Tamโs iconic strange flair, creating a thought-provoking exploration of the bizarre hidden beneath the surface.
