Spider Lilies (18) S

Dir: Zero Chou Cast: Rainie Yang / Isabella Leong 94 mins, 2007, Taiwan , Subtitled Please note: this is an old screening, first shown in July 2008

Shifting between past and present, the imagined and the real, Spider Lilies sets traditional themes of family obligation and fate in a candy-coloured world of Internet chatrooms and tattoo parlours. ‘Webgirl’ Jade, literally a creator of fantasy in a soft-core chatroom, has an interest in a particular tattoo designed by a gentle artist Takeko that becomes the catalyst for change in both women’s lives, unearthing past secrets and awakening hidden desires.
