A substitute teacher from Taipei arrives in a country village where he meets his mischievous students. There, he begins a romance with a fellow teacher, and gradually begins to enjoy his life in the countryside. But his city girlfriend comes to drag him back.
Fresh, unaffected, and nostalgic: The Green, Green Grass of Home is one of the New Taiwanese Cinema master Hou Hsiao-hsien’s early romantic comedies, and also his last. Hou’s invigorating third feature is both a gorgeous slice-of-life study of rural existence and a charmingly lyrical romance.
