**Screenwriters**: Tsai Ming-liang, Yang Ping-ying **Producers**: Peggy Chiao, Carole Scotta, Caroline Benjo Your Saturday night is about to get surreal with Tsai Ming-liang’s wholly original dystopian dark comedy *The Hole* presented on a glorious brand new 35mm print! Set just prior to the start of the 21st century, this vaguely futuristic story follows two residents of a quickly crumbling building who refuse to leave their homes in spite of a virus that has forced the evacuation of the area. As rain pours down relentlessly, a single man is stuck with an unfinished plumbing job and a hole in his floor. This results in a very odd relationship with the woman who lives below him. Combining deadpan humor with an austere view of loneliness and a couple of unexpected musical numbers, Tsai Ming-Liang crafted one of the most original films of the 1990s. **Picks from the Video Store** Take home more jaw-droppers from the Tasi Ming-liang director’s section! *Goodbye Dragon Inn, Rebels of the Neon God, Vive L’Amour* **Accessibility Options**: Open Captions, Amplified Audio, please see the box office for devices.
