The Lost Generation, released in '83, is a raw exploration of the struggles faced by Chinese women in Hong Kong. The director remains unknown, which gives it an intriguing layer of mystery. The pacing feels deliberate, almost languid at times, allowing you to absorb the stark realities and emotional turmoil of these characters. The performances are quite impactful; they bring a tangible sense of desperation and resilience. The practical effects are minimal, focusing instead on the raw, gritty atmosphere of urban life and the harsh conditions of immigration. It’s an unvarnished look at survival and sisterhood, leaving you with a sense of empathy for those who often go unnoticed. Definitely a film that lingers in your mind long after the credits roll.
