Rétro Taiwan

Le temps retrouvé dans le cinéma sinophone contemporain

Preface : Stéphane Corcuff

Analysis of vintage taste in sinophone cinema. The author synthesizes the major works that have studied this movement, more complex than just mere nostalgia, and seeks to identify what Taiwanese, Hong Kong or Chinese people try to express based on detailed analyzes of Hou Hsiao-Hsien, Edward Yang or Tsai Ming-Liang's movies.
