Plot Outline:
A Chinese man becomes an expert player of the traditional game of Go.      
         
:: Plot ::
Tian Zhuangzhuang's stunning new film reconstructs the life of the 20th Century's greatest
player of Go, the eastern equivalent of chess. Wu Qingyuan (born 1914 and still going strong)
was identified young as a go prodigy and transplanted in his mid-teens from China to Japan,
where go was a national obsession. He has lived there ever since, marrying a Japanese woman
who shared his devotion to Buddhism (both of them tangled briefly with a Messianic cult),
surrounded by war and destruction and torn by divided loyalties. As dreamlike and haunting
as Tian's classic Horse Thief, this is neither an orthodox biopic nor a dry historical
chronicle but a serene and very beautiful account of one man's attempt to maintain mental
and emotional equilibrium while pursuing the goals of truth and perfect game-play.
