THE ARCHSet in 17th-century China, the film depicts a young widow, Madam Tung, who lives a celibate life with her mother-in-law and daughter. Admired for her virtue, Madam Tung is honored by the village with a triumphal arch in her name. Shot in Hong Kong, this poignant film reveals the cruelty of social pressures placed on a woman whose voice has been taken away. Dir. T'ang Shushuen • China • 1968 • Mandarin • 95 min
