Description
 
This is a region-free DVD-R without case or artwork.

In Mandarin with English subtitles. The original Mandarin title of this movie is 'Dong fu Ren'.

A precursor to the Hong Kong New Wave films of the late 70s and 80s, Cecile Tang Shu-shuen’s debut feature immediately cast her as an artistic and socially conscious iconoclast. This stylized period melodrama stars Lisa Lu as a widow who suppresses her requited desire for a virile young man, in favor of feudal virtue and her daughter. Shot in part by Subrata Mitra, Satyajit Ray’s longtime cinematographer, and co-edited by the redoubtable Les Blank, The Arch became the first modern Chinese film to win international acclaim.
