Pitch

After having discovered that her husband was cheating on her, Liang Bo-Yi asks for a divorce. She now has to manage on her own in her new rela- tions with her son and her desire to start a new life. Despite the happy faces her "sisters" from the Spinsters' Club put on, each of them secretly yearns to have a man in her life. When her repentant husband asks to be forgiven, Liang is forced to decide what she really wants. ‘Women’, Stanley Kwan's first film, offers a sensitive portrayal of the whirlwind of emotions in women's hearts and of the constant struggle between what their hearts and minds say.

His visual style shows mastery mixed with abandon. It is powerful yet delicate and graceful, capturing feminine sensitivity - love, hate, jealousy, pleasure and all their emotional turmoil - through fluid, subtle camera movements.
