Synopsis

Named ‘Best Picture of the Year’ by 100 critics nationwide, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon tells the epic tale of two master warriors (Chow Yun Fat and Michelle Yeoh) who are faced with their greatest challenge when the treasured Green Destiny sword is stolen. A young aristocrat (Zhang Ziyi) prepares for an arranged marriage, but soon reveals her superior fighting talents and her deeply romantic past. As each warrior battles for justice, they come face to face with their worst enemy – and the inescapable, enduring power of love. Set against 19th-century China’s breathtaking landscape, ‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’ is the action-packed, box office smash from acclaimed director Ang Lee. Winner of 73rd Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, Art Direction, Original Score and Cinematography.
