Far Away Eyes
Dir. Wang Chun-hong, 2021, Taiwan, 79 min.
Free tickets now available
A photographer wanders through Taipei as the city braces for a presidential election. Adrift and questioning his chosen vocation, self-doubt begins to creep in as his 30th birthday approaches. What does his future hold? A thoughtful blend of fiction and documentary, complemented by gentle, strikingly composed black-and-white cinematography, distinguish this contemplative urban travelog of sorts that echoes the quiet pulse of life in the city. Chinese with subtitles. Film Trailer.

Location:
Wednesday, August 16 at 6:30pm | Chicago Cultural Center (78 E. Washington St., 2nd fl.)
