| Synopsis : |
Framed by the national upheaval surrounding the end of Japan's 51-year rule of Taiwan, "A City of Sadness" depicts the fraying of a family. The Lins, including a deaf-mute photographer played by tony Leung, struggles to stay Taiwanese in the wake of Taiwan's return to mainland China. Largely a reflection on communication using four Chinese dialects, Japanese, and the written word? City of Sadness" has appropriately sparked heated public debates regarding Taiwanese history. |
