In Taipei City, a cavernous old picture palace is about to close its doors forever. A meagre audience, the remaining few staff, and perhaps even a ghost or two, watch King Hu's wuxia classic Dragon Inn - each haunted by memories and desires evoked by cinema itself.
An exquisite, wryly funny and tender tribute to the experience of movie-going, Tsai Ming-Liang's poignant love letter to cinema is one of the most beguiling and beloved dramas of modern times and is now widely regarded as a classic. Presented here in a new 4K restoration, the film is more ravishing and hypnotic than ever.
Special Features
- Goodbye, Dragon Inn (Bú sàn, 2003) presented from a brand new 4K restoration of the film.
- A new and exclusive filmed interview with director Tsai Ming-Liang.

A Mood
Feels like spending an evening wandering backstage at the movies, behind the screens, in dark corridors, watching people doing their stuff silently. Ambient moviemaking.
