Our final film of the season is The last Dance (2024/127 mins/15), a poignant drama set in Hong Kong and deals with complex issues including family ties, religion and gender inequalities. Wedding planner Dominic is struggling financially and when his girlfriend’s uncle retires, agrees to take over his funeral parlour.  There he works alongside Master Man, a Taoist priest dedicated to performing traditional funeral rituals and who is antagonistic to Dominic’s attempts to modernize the parlour.  To try to ease tensions, Dominic visits Man at home, meeting his daughter Yuet and son Ben but finds they also have a conflicted relationship with their father.  Things come to a head over a special request from a grieving mother before the two men can begin to accept and respect each other.  BBFC Insight: brief strong sex  Cantonese with subtitles.
