In Between Changing Worlds with Edward Yang

Week 12 | Edward Yang : Taipei Story and Yi Yi The G5A Virtual Cinema Club – 52 weeks. 52 filmmakers. 2 films a week Cinema and the moving image is central to our lives even more today than ever before. It touches our lives intimately and profoundly. It can shape our ideas, thoughts, and values. It also has the power to change our ways of looking and thinking. This is the language of cinema and we are here to talk about it. How the various elements, the images, the sound, the narrative, and the performance, all come together to bring life to the words, characters, and places. As we look closely, what threads do we begin to see across a director’s work: similar themes, a signature style, or perhaps the evolution of an idea. Cinema has the ability to raise many powerful questions and we’re hoping to ask the right ones. At the end of every week, Neeraj Jain and Ishan Benegal will discuss the films online. We’d love to have you join the conversation whether you’re able to see the films or not. You don’t need to go anywhere. You can enjoy these films from the comfort of your room, sofa, or cell phone right from a streaming service.
