Perennial muse Lee Kang-sheng (&#8216;the man upstairs&#8217;) and Yang Kuei-mei (&#8216;the woman downstairs&#8217;) are among the building&#8217;s last holdouts, refusing evacuation as a mysterious epidemic spreads outside and rain batters the city without end. When a plumber leaves behind an unfinished repair, the man&#8217;s floor opens into an accidental passage between two sealed-off lives, turning leaks, trash, pesticide, and petty territorial warfare into a strange form of courtship. Among the most disarmingly funny and cathartic entries in Tsai&#8217;s filmography, u003cemu003eThe Holeu003c\/emu003e finds hope in a world that seems to be falling apart, breaking its deadpan plague scenario open with splendorous Grace Chang musical numbers and poker-faced slapstick.

After a first trip in 1968 on JFK\u2019s footsteps, Okamura moved to Ireland in 1969 with his family, and spent the next 15 years of his life photographing the north and the south of the island. Exploring his unique perspective as both an insider and an outsider, this short film offers a nuanced portrayal of the complexities and contradictions of human nature. Through interviews, archival footage, and Okamura\u2019s own evocative photographs, we invite audiences to contemplate the universal themes of resilience, empathy, and the enduring quest for peace in the face of adversity. The Memories of Others is a testament to the power of visual storytelling in capturing the essence of human experiences amidst conflict. This film was made in collaboration with Photo Museum Ireland, Dublin, and the Akihiko Okamura Archive, Tokyo.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- \/.article__content -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<script>\n   function toggleDescs(rand) {\n\t  if (jQuery('#item_' + rand + ' .description').attr(\"style\") == \"display: none;\") {\n\t\t jQuery('#items_2580 .articles__item .description').each(function () {\n\t\t\tjQuery(this).hide(\"slow\");\n\t\t });\n\t\t jQuery('#items_2580 .articles__item a.seemore').each(function () {\n\t\t\tjQuery(this).html(\"See more\");\n\t\t });\n\t\t jQuery('#items_2580 .articles__item').each(function () {\n\t\t\tjQuery(this).removeClass('on');\n\t\t });\n\t\t jQuery('#item_' + rand).addClass(\"on\");\n\t\t jQuery('#item_' + rand + ' .description').show(\"slow\");\n\t\t jQuery('#more' + rand).html(\"See less\");\n\t  } else {\n\t\t jQuery('#item_' + rand + ' .articles__item').removeClass(\"off\");\n\t\t jQuery('#item_' + rand + ' .description').hide(\"slow\");\n\t\t jQuery('#more' + rand).html(\"See more\");\n\t  }\n   }\n<\/script>\n<style>\n   div.articles__item.on .article-small .article__image,\n   .article-small .article__image:hover,\n   .article-small .article__image > img:hover {\n\t  filter: grayscale(0%);\n   }\n\n<\/style>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Events<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"articles-small articles-small--richtext section__articles\">\n\t\t<div class=\"articles__items\" id=\"items_2608\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"articles__item\" id=\"item_1810\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-small article-small--reverse article-small--limit-title-3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Dao-Les-Films-du-Worso-Srab-Films-Yennenga-Productions-Nafi-Films-Telecine-Bissau-Producoes-Canal-Plus-Afrique-scaled.webp\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-post-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__head\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 0px\">NYFF64 &#8211;

This series highlights the illusions and disillusions of that dream: utopia and harsh reality, opportunity and mistrust, wealth and hardship. While the films in this series focuses on immigrants\u2019 experiences in\u2014and journeys to\u2014the US, Immigrant Nation also looks abroad with many French films and co-productions including films by Rabah Ameur-Za\u00efmeche, Villa Albertine resident Alice Diop, Paulin Soumanou Vieyra, Mati Diop, Laurent Cantet, Med Hondo, Ousmane Semb\u00e8ne, to capture the global nature of movement across borders. In the communal space of the theater, we discover a common thread: a universal longing for acceptance and dignity that transcends national boundaries, and the hope that people in transit will see future generations lead better lives.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- \/.article__content -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"articles__item\" id=\"item_1731\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-small article-small--reverse article-small--limit-title-3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Capture-decran-2026-08-23-a-10.20.21-AM.jpg.webp\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-post-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__head\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 0px\">Cinema Across Continents: Rediscovering the Lumi\u00e8re Brothers Film Footage<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- \/.article__head -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__excerpt\" style=\"display: block\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMaison Fran\u00e7aise at Columbia University\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/e\/cinema-across-continents-tickets-1996741029169?aff=oddtdtcreator\" target=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t title=\"Click here for tickets\">Click here for tickets<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<br>Tuesday, September 15  |\u202f 6:30 PM &#8211; 8 PM\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- \/.article__excerpt -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"seemore\" id=\"more1731\" onclick=\"toggleDescs(1731);\">See more<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"description\" style=\"display: none;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>As part of the Cinema Across Continents series, Columbia\u2019s Maison Fran\u00e7aise hosts a special screening of early Lumi\u00e8re archival footage (1895\u20131905), tracing the global journeys of French cinema&#8217;s pioneer cameramen with live piano accompaniment.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- \/.article__content -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"articles__item\" id=\"item_1092\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article-small article-small--reverse article-small--limit-title-3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/tje-chandelier-e1777475166787.webp\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-post-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__head\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 0px\">Masquerade: The Phantom of the Opera, Reimagined<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- \/.article__head -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"article__excerpt\" style=\"display: block\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNew York\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<br><a href=\"https:\/\/tickets.masqueradenyc.com\/event\/35985?PROMO=FCVA\" target=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t title=\"Click here for tickets\">Click here for tickets<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<br>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- \/.article__excerpt -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"seemore\" id=\"more1092\" onclick=\"toggleDescs(1092);\">See more<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"description\" style=\"display: none;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Interested in nocturnal mysteries?
