Hou Hsiao Hsien, the leading figure of the Taiwanese New Wave, is one of the most important and influential filmmakers to emerge over the past three decades. His A City of Sadness , was the first Taiwanese film to win the Golden Lion award at the 1989 Venice Film Festival. 20 years later, when we visited Taiwan in 2009, he took us on a tour to Jioufen, where the film was set. It was a small gold mining village. During the first years of the Qing Dynasty, the village here housed nine families, thus the village would request nine portions every time shipments arrived from town. Later Jiufen (nine portions in Chinese) would become the name of the village. He suggested the caption for our photo Two Old Men .
