YI YI (2000, 173 min) is Edward Yang’s final masterpiece that earned him Best Director at Cannes in 2000. This visually stunning film elegantly weaves the interior lives of a multigenerational, modern family in Taipei. Their quietly human stories are about innocence, love, death, difficult decisions, regrets, acceptance, revelations, and more.
