The Early Films of Hou Hsiao-hsien

Director Hou established himself as a major figure in world cinema with a series of groundbreaking and award-winning films such as A City of Sadness (1989), The Puppetmaster (1993) Millennium Mambo (2001) and The Assassin (2015). With a growing interest in New Taiwan Cinema figures such as Hou and Edward Yang, this seems the perfect time to offer audiences the opportunity to see some of the works that established Hou Hsiao-hsien as a major figure in Taiwanese cinema.

Curated by Andy Willis, Senior Visiting Curator at HOME in Manchester and Professor of Film Studies at the University of Salford. Thanks to HOME for the opportunity to screen these films.
