Lan Yu
Hailed by NEWSWEEK as one of the best films of 2002, Stanley  Kwan's groundbreaking, beautifully filmed adaptation of an anonymously published  internet novel, Lan Yu is set against the Tiananmen Square uprising. Lan Yu tells the  story of a young, gay architecture student and his ongoing relationship with an older,  successful businessman. The handsome playboy-businessman must choose between his  comfortable, yet closeted life in the straight world, or an honest, yet subversive life with  the student. Lan Yu was selected in the opening/closing night slots for the San Francisco,  New York, and Los Angeles Gay Film Festivals inn 2002, as well as playing at the  Sundance Film Festival, Cannes Film Festival, and Toronto Film Festival.
