o Most of the DVD manufacturers don't state whether subtitles are optional or not. Unfortunately, we don't have the capacity to inspect every DVD title to determine whether subtitles can be removed or not. Therefore, when purchasing the DVD, which contains subtitles, the assumption should be that subtitles are not removable. However, you can try DVD's menu to turn off subtitles or try 'Subtitles' button on your DVD player's remote control to turn off the subtitles track. If these steps don't work, then unfortunately subtitles are not optional.

| | | | Synopsis: | The most dynamic filmmaker of the Taiwanese New Wave, Hou Hsiao-hsien, has become one of the most important filmmakers in world cinema. His very recognisable, contemplative style has influenced a whole generation, not only in East Asia. CINEMATEK has gathered three early films on this 3 disc edition: the romantic comedies Cute Girl and The Green, Green Grass of Home which Hou made on demand, and The Boys from Fengkuei, considered to be the turning point both cinematographically and aesthetically in his career. All three films have been restored by CINEMATEK under supervision of Hou Hsiao-hsien and in collaboration with the Film Foundation (World Cinema Project). Every film is accompanied by an audiovisual essay by Cristina Álvarez López and Adrian Martin. In the accompanying booklet Tom Paulus (University of Antwerp) comes back on the early days of Hou Hsiao-hsien's career.

There are several students in his class who are like the naughty 'three musketeers', and a sad, silent boy Xiang-Wang, who's parents are divorced. Besides, in order to support the family, Xian-Wang's father kills the fish in the river with electricity, which is against the law and causes a lot of damage to the natural resources. Because of this, Xian-Wang has been teased by other school children. At last, he becomes so upset and runs away from home...

Ah-Ching and his friends have just finished school in their island fishing village, and now spend most of their time drinking and fighting.

There they face the harsh realities of the big city.
