Flight of the Red Balloon - dvd |
| From master Taiwanese director Hou Hsiao-hsien
comes this beautiful homage to Albert Lamorisse's
Oscar-winning children's short film, The Red
Balloon and to Paris itself. Seven-year-old Simon is
affectionately followed by a mysterious red
balloon. His mother, Suzanne, a puppeteer and
children's entertainer, is completely absorbed in
her new show. As Suzanne strives to balance work
and motherhood, the red balloon appears to Simon
and his Taiwanese nanny as they journey around
modern-day Paris, offering the boy the love and
support his mother can't.
