Or as Wiki puts it, a 2016 Taiwanese black comedy-fantasy-mystery-drama film. Here is the trailer

https://youtu.be/iecoQfdwQ1k

Synopsis(quoting Variety here)

The tenants are an interesting bunch. Kuo Li (Lee Kang-shen) and Linghu (Bernard SenJun) are a gay couple attempting to hide their relationship. Divorced gym instructor Chang (Chuang Kai-hsun) is a ball of pent-up rage. Depressed single father Wang (Phil Yan) harbors incestuous desire for his young daughter (Angel Ho). Li Xing is terrific as Miss Chen, an office worker with a high sex drive. Boyan (Yan Sheng-yu) is a video game-addicted student whose only other pastime is onanism.

If there’s a “love interest” here it’s Yingru (Ivy Shao, excellent), a beautiful young woman whose apartment is stacked with ominously heavy suitcases, and whose bathtub contains an unfortunate young man being subjected to the vilest torture.

The landlord, the guy pictured above, spies on them. Fun ensues.


As usual lock if old

Otherwise, this looks interesting. I'm gonna put this on my radar and hopefully it comes to VIFF
 
Lee Kang-sheng what are you doing that is not a Tsai Ming-liang film.

Not sure what to think of that (long) trailer. Looks like a fun role for Simon Yam, tho. Might watch for that.
 
The trailer plays like a music video. This looks like a cross between Takashi Miike's "Audition" and Jean-Pierre Jeunet's "Delicatessen". It's on my radar, now. Thanks, OP!
 
Will make sure to check it out. Kind of odd how this genre of movie doesnt really seem to exist in the states.
