Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Bardo is a 2014 film from Mongolia directed by Agvaantseren Enkhtaivan.Agvaa is a street cleaner in Ulaanbaatar. His job sometimes involves clearing routine debris, but sometimes requires cleaning the aftermath of traffic accidents. One day he has to clean up after a traffic collision that killed a young mother named Erdentsetseg. It's tragic, but it happens, and Agvaa has other concerns, like Tuya his pretty coworker and how his boss is trying to match them up.Then he starts to have visions of Erdentsetseg. The dead woman's ghost begins to follow him around the city. It becomes clear that Erdentsetseg's spirit has some Unfinished Business.The title comes from the Buddhist word "bardo", meaning an intermediate state between life and death.

Invisible to Adults: No one else can see the ghost of Erdentsetseg—except her little son Batdorj, who recognizes his mom when she shows up in Algaa's apartment near the end of the film.

Flashback: A flashback to Algaa cleaning up the site of the accident, and specifically picking up Erdentsetseg's belongings. This is implied to be the reason why her spirit fixates on Algaa as her agent.

Kubrick Stare: In true Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl style, Erdentsetseg gives a lot of these when she begins to haunt Algaa.
