Following "Taipei Story" and "The Terrorists," director Edward Yang released "A Brighter Summer Day" in 1991. While hailed as a masterpiece that will go down in cinematic history, it has remained hidden for a long time, never released on DVD, since its 1992 premiere and subsequent VHS release. In 2017, a digitally remastered version was released in Japan for the first time in nearly 25 years, and it also began streaming on Netflix in August 2019. Now you can finally watch it on your smartphone. Set in Taipei in the 1960s, this turbulent and breathtakingly intense story of youth is depicted. This 3-hour, 56-minute epic, composed of light and shadow, remains fresh and vivid, far from fading.




The Korean film "Parasite" achieved a historic feat at the 92nd Academy Awards. Bong Joon-ho, the world's most acclaimed director and co-writer, directed and co-wrote the film Mother, his fourth feature film, released in 2009. It's a social suspense drama about the bond between mother and son. Do-joon (Won Bin), an innocent young man, becomes a suspect in a brutal murder case that takes place in a rural Korean town, while his mother (Kim Hye-ja) works hard to clear her son's name. Kim Hye-ja is a renowned actress who has played so many maternal roles that she is known in Korea as the "mother of Korea." The opening dance scene will remain etched in the memory of viewers forever.






This anthology film features three talented directors: Bong Joon-ho, who was introduced in the previous film, as well as Michel Gondry of "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" from France and Leos Carax of "Les Amis de Bon Neuf."

Director Bong Joon-ho's film is a fantastical love story depicting the strange emotional exchange between the reclusive protagonist played by Kagawa Teruyuki and a pizza delivery girl played by Aoi Yu. The delicate tension that constantly flows through each scene will hold your breath, make your heart flutter, and may even make you feel like you're in love.
