“ AN UNCLASSIFIABLE WORK WITH A DREAMY LYRICISM. ”
THE WORLD
AVAILABLE FOR THE FIRST TIME ON BLU-RAY
Relatives of the wealthy Hong Kong class, Louis and his friend Kathy will bond with Tomato and Pong, of more modest means. Having become inseparable, the two couples lead an idle life, dreaming of reaching distant lands aboard the Nomad, Louis' father's sailboat. They will soon be joined by Shinsuke, Kathy's Japanese boyfriend, pursued for having deserted the Japanese Red Army...
Director Patrick Tam ( The Sword ) has made Nomad a work that is as daring as it is unclassifiable, marked by the cinema of Jean-Luc Godard and Nagisa Oshima. Starring four of the most prominent actors of the 1980s – including Leslie Cheung ( Farewell My Concubine ) and Cecilia Yip ( Center Stage ) – this turbulent and thrilling romance created controversy by depicting the unbridled sexuality of Hong Kong youth and the chaotic political climate of its time. An essential classic of the New Wave, to be discovered for the first time in its restored 4K version in its Director's Cut!
