[Asianmedia] Fwd: Movie Night: The Wayward Cloud 天邊一朵雲

[Jiemin]

Hello all,

Come enjoy a juicy water-melo[n]drama and free food with PASA [Pan Asian
Students Alliance] this Tuesday in FPH 103!!!

In a city where there's a water shortage and thus cum is the new water,
watermelons are about :
the alienated humans seeking for connections, the nonverbal bodies trying to
have conversations, comical and musical emotional outbursts, urban diaspora
...

Tsai Ming-liang [director] is a Chinese born in Malaysia and lived in a
kampong for over 20 years, after which he moved to Taipei, Taiwan. This, he
says, had "a huge impact on [his] mind and psyche," perhaps later mirrored
in his films. "Even today," says Tsai, "I feel I belong neither to Taiwan
nor to Malaysia. In a sense, I can go anywhere I want and fit in, but I
never feel that sense of belonging." [-wiki]

Sorry, there isn't an English trailer for this movie, so enjoy some French
