Vive L'Amour

Tsai Ming-liang's sophomore feature follows three lonely souls sharing a Taipei apartment. Realtor May Lin brings her lover Ah-jung to the vacant unit, unaware that it is secretly occupied by suicidal funeral salesman Hsiao-kang.

They each cross paths in a series of precisely staged, tragicomic encounters but, despite their physical proximity, find themselves no closer to a personal connection.
