Yi Yi
2000
Synopsis
Engineer NJ lives in Taipei with his wife, Min-Min, and his two children, teenage daughter Ting-Ting and young son Yang-Yang. As the old millennium gives way to the new, each family member must navigate the hopes, anxieties, and disappointments handed down by their upbringing and history.
Editorial
An epic of detail rather than sprawl, Edward Yang’s impeccably framed family portrait set the bar high for the cinema of the new century in its first year. Training extraordinary attention on ordinary lives, Yi Yi immortalizes the fleeting everyday with limpid, humanist grace.
