BLUE SUN PALACE
Winner of the French Touch prize in the Critic's Week lineup at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival
Within the confines of a massage parlor in Flushing, Queens,
Amy and Didi navigate romance, happiness, and the obligations of family
thousands of miles from home. Despite the physical and emotional toll their
work extracts, the women who live at the parlor have fortified an impenetrable
sisterhood. When tragedy strikes on Lunar New Year, Amy is forced to consider
her own destiny for the first time ever. Despite finding solace in the company
of Cheung, Amy must leave the city and prioritize her own spirit in order to
survive. In an unseen part of New York, Blue Sun Palace explores the lives
of transient souls trying to find a sense of permanence. (USA, 2025, 116 mins, Mandarin, English & Min Nan | Dir. Constance
