Intriguing Hong Kong classic Chungking Express (1994; 100 mins) will be screened by Maynooth Film For All on Wednesday, 8 February, at 8pm.

Ciaran Cassidy's short film Collaboration Horizontale (2010; 13 mins) will accompany the feature at 7.45pm sharp (http://directory.irishfilmboard.ie/films/1058-collaboration-horizontale).

Cult filmmaker Wong Kar-Wai's hugely influential breakthrough is a supremely stylish combination of love story and thriller, set in and around Hong Kong's infamous Chungking Mansions, a vast complex of shabby hostels, bars and clubs

The film tells the stories of two lovelorn policemen and the women with whom they become involved: a mysterious drug dealer dressed in a blonde wig and sunglasses, and an impulsive young dreamer.

Featuring a charismatic cast, cool soundtrack and stunning photography by Christopher Doyle, Chunking Express is an unconventional and dazzlingly original modern day noir.
