Film Information

Within the confines of a massage parlor in Flushing, Queens, Amy and Didi navigate romance, happiness, and the obligations of family thousands of miles from home. Despite the physical and emotional toll their work extracts, the women who live at the parlor have fortified an impenetrable sisterhood.

When tragedy strikes on Lunar New Year, Amy is forced to consider her own destiny for the first time ever. Despite finding solace in the company of Cheung, Amy must leave the city and prioritize her own spirit in order to survive. In an unseen part of New York, Blue Sun Palace explores the lives of transient souls trying to find a sense of permanence.

Reviews

“[A] resolutely humane but fiercely unsentimental film.”

David Ehrlich
IndieWire

“By its final grace note, one that considers the reality that some wounds aren’t meant to heal, BLUE SUN PALACE, a soulful and passionate meditation on loss, shines as a new gem of slow cinema.”

Robert Daniels
RogerEbert.com

“Tsang and her strong cast, with superb contributions from production designer Evaline Wu Huang, have captured something evanescent and life-giving, and grounded it in kitchen clatter and workplace chatter, the gritty day-to-day.”

Sheri Linden
The Hollywood Reporter
