Vive L'Amour (1994)

A scene from Vive L'Amour. [Photo/Mtime]


Director: Tsai Ming-liang

Taipei's night hums with the vitality of a metropolis. Hsiao-Kang purchases a bottle of water from a convenience store, returns to his apartment and ponders about his life in an empty room. At a food court in a department store, Mei-ling and Ah-jung meet for the first time and become romantically involved, all the while sipping their fruit juices and glancing at each other from time to time.

The slow-paced film with little dialogue is about urban alienation, telling the story of three young people who unknowingly share an apartment in Taipei.

The film won a Golden Lion award in 1994.
