Three Melodramas by Ray Yeung

Specializing in tender, sensitive explorations of queer and Asian identity, writer-director Ray Yeung has carved out a unique place in contemporary Hong Kong cinema to tell intimate stories of gay love finding a way in the face of repression and prejudice. Shot in New York City, Front Cover is a sweetly endearing romantic comedy with a queer culture-clash twist, while Twilight’s Kiss and All Shall Be Well , both set in Hong Kong, are something altogether rare in cinema: nuanced and deeply affecting portraits of older gay and lesbian couples navigating love and loss in later life.
