Description

40th anniversary of Tsui Hark's fast-paced action comedy!

 

In the aftermath of China’s first democratic revolution, three high-spirited young women from different backgrounds cross paths on a quest for liberation. Together, their intertwined lives weave an epic tale of love, sacrifice and patriotism, as they embark on a daring journey in the midst of political chaos. Elegantly blending action, comedy and social satire into a bright and colorful production, PEKING OPERA BLUES boasts Tsui Hark’s energetic filmmaking style at the height of his powers, and remains an acclaimed classic of Hong Kong cinema.

 

In Cantonese with English subtitles.
