This weekend:
5TH AVENUE CINEMA PRESENTS
Rebels of the Neon God
Dir. tsai ming-liang (1992); taiwan; 106 min
In Tsai Ming-liang's rain-drenched portrayal of Taipei, the city is a sprawling abyss where rebellion is the countermeasure to overwhelming alienation and yearning. Set against a backdrop of neon-lit facades, the film follows the lives of disaffected youth orbiting in a state of unconsummated desires and nihilistic idleness.
