Wong Kar-Wai: In the Mood for Cinema

🎬 Retrospective – June & July at LAB-1

This summer, step into the melancholic universe of Wong Kar-wai, the legendary Chinese filmmaker who turned longing into an art form. His cinema is soaked in neon lights, slow-motion glances, smoky silences, and unspoken desires.

Every Monday in June and on repeat on Thursdays in July we revisit five of his most iconic films (plus one rare gem) on the big screen at LAB-1.
