- Synopsis:
Ang Lee's directorial debut established him as a world-class filmmaker and truly unique talent. "Pushing Hands" is a deeply moving and funny examination of Chinese respect for their elders and the cultural differences between the East and the West. Mr. Chu is an elderly man who has devoted himself to a lifetime of study and teaching Tai Chi but in old age wishes a closer relationship with his family and so decides to leave his native Beijing to live with his son Alex (Bo Z. Wang), and his frustrated writer wife Alex (Deb Snyder) in New York. Adapting to a new culture, bonding with his new wider American family and adjusting to his dwindling independence in old age, Chu soon discovers there is still much to learn. - Actors:
