ELECTRIC SHADOWS
Friday, March 14, 2008, 7:00 pm, Meyer Auditorium
From director Xiao Jiang, a bracing new female voice in Chinese cinema, comes this ode to love (and love of movies) that has been compared to Cinema Paradiso. Spanning the Cultural Revolution to the present day, it follows two childhood friends who rediscover one another years later. This is “a lovely, elegant paean to the joy and liberty that films offer” (Hollywood Reporter).
2004 / 95 min. / Mandarin with English subtitles
Presented in association with National Women’s History Month
Free tickets required.
