Show & CultureShow & CultureA Hong Kong action movie star travels to Paris to play the criminal Irma Vep in a remake of Louis Feuillade’s classic Les Vampires (1915). Instead of the expected professionalism, the actress finds herself caught in total chaos surrounded by colliding egos... Directed by Olivier Assayas, the film combines the energy of Hong Kong cinema with the spirit of French cinema, evoking the ghosts of Feuillade, Truffaut, or Rivette. Official selection, Un Certain Regard – Cannes 1996.
