The Hole
1999 · 95 MIN · IMDB 7.4 · 4,564 VOTES · DIR. Tsai Ming-liang
Overview
In the final days of the year 1999, almost everyone in Taiwan has died from a strange plague that ravished the island. As rain pours down relentlessly, a single man is stuck with an unfinished plumbing job and a hole in his floor. This results in a very odd relationship with the woman who lives below him.
