Description

In an old cinema, The Lion City (1960), the first Chinese film by Cathay-Keris, plays to a dwindling audience. As the black-and-white love story echoes through the cinema’s empty halls, two strangers seek a connection. Shot in the historic Golden Theatre located in Golden Mile tower, a modernist architectural icon, now home to The Projector, this homage to Tsai Ming Liang’s Goodbye, Dragon Inn acts as an ode to the ghosts and sanctity of the cinematic space.
