FROM CANNES WINNING DIRECTOR HOU HSIAO HSIEN
A month or two ago I showed you first photos and a clip from new sprawling movie THE ASSASSIN and now we have the first trailer.
It is directed byHou Hsiao Hsien who was awarded atCannes Film Festival this year. The film is set during the mighty Tang Dynasty period in Chinese history.Qi Shu is Nie Yinniang who returns to family after several years in exile. The mission of her order is to eliminate the tyranny of the Governors who avoid the authority of the Emperor. Now she will have to choose between sacrificing the man she loves, or break definitively with the "order of the Assassins".
