Short summary

In 2013, Taiwan's Golden Horse Film Festival celebrated its 50th anniversary. The ministry of Culture commissioned acclaimed Taiwanese documentary director Yang Li-chou to make a film about the history of Golden Horse, Chinese-language cinema's oldest film awards. What is unique about the result is that it's not an ode to celebrities but about the role cinema plays in ordinary people's lives. It's a love letter to cinema, filmmakers and audiences. Using archival footage, and clips from classics as well as interviews with luminaries such as Hou Hsiao-Hsien, Sylvia Chang, Stanley Kwan and others, this is a paean to cinema that traces Taiwan's tumultuous past as well as the richness of Chinese-language films in the past 50 years.

Stanley Kwan Stanley Kwan - Himself
