This outstandingly beautiful work is a story within a story. A businessman goes to the country to assist his elderly mother with his father’s burial, and learns of his parents experience as young lovers in the face of unfeeling authority. It stars the radiant Zhang Ziyi 章子怡 (Crouching Tiger & hidden Dragon) as the young country girl who falls for a visiting teacher. (Supported by the City Bridge Trust.
