"A HAUNTING AND MESMERIZING FILM."
WONG KAR-WAI

Beijing , 1924. Douzi enters Master Guan's academy to learn the art of opera. He quickly becomes friends with the young Shitou. As teenagers, the two boys obtain the leading roles in a great classic of Chinese culture, "Farewell My Concubine", which will lead them to glory. Ten years later, now known as Dieyi and Xiaolou, the inseparable Douzi and Shitou tirelessly perform this same opera. But an upheaval is soon to occur. Having always been in love with his partner, Dieyi learns of Xiaolou's engagement to Juxian, a former prostitute...

A long-running epic that intertwines beauty and violence, Farewell My Concubine explores the close relationship between two great actors of the Peking Opera through the upheavals of 20th-century Chinese history. In this virtuoso historical reconstruction transcended by a trio of exceptional actors, director Chen Kaige ( Yellow Earth ) depicts with panache this turbulent period that sweeps the three heroes into turmoil. Thirty years after its breakout performance at the Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Palme d'Or (tied with Jane Campion's The Piano ) , Farewell My Concubine is available for the first time in 4K Ultra HD™ and Blu-ray™ in its new 4K restoration!
