Director Tsai Ming-Liang’s debut feature is a masterful exploration of urbanalienation and sexual malaise. Living a stifled existence, teenager Hsiao Kang becomes fascinated with petty thief Ah-Tze. Foregrounding themes of queer desire, the film introduced cinemagoers to Tsai’s signature minimalist style, and to his muse, actor Lee Kang-Sheng.
