Synopsis
In a radical and provocative video documentary, director Stanley Kwan recontextualises Chinese cultural and cinematic traditions through a transgressive queer lens. With precision and sharpness, Kwan confronts and dissects queer representation through the utilisation of film excerpts and interviews with filmmakers and actors such as Hou Hsiao Hsien, John Woo and Leslie Cheung. Kwan’s vivisection of the varied expressions of gender and sexuality throughout history reinterprets queer values as inextricable from Chinese culture, closeted within cinema. Yang ± Yin also shifts between the cultural and personal fluidly, marking the moment when Kwan publicly declared his sexuality and became the first openly gay auteur in Sinophone cinema.23/6 (Sun) 5:20pm @ MMCP*
