"Assassin" is the latest work of Hou Hsiao-hsien, the most famous after Angu Lee, director of Taiwan. The award for best director at this year's Cannes film festival is a great tribute to the wuxia genre - stories about the legendary warriors and masters of wushu fighting.

The story is set in China's Tang Dynasty. Ten-year girl goes to the monastery, which is trained as a professional assassin. After years of returning to their homeland, to realize a secret mission. Her loyalty is put to the test - the aim is a nice heart of her prince. Classical courtly intrigue director tells the author's way. A story of honor, betrayal and loyalty Hou writes for details: look behind the curtains, seen from afar meetings, moments of silence suspended between words. There is no shortage of course, battle sequences, marvelously photographed by cinematographer for "yearning for love" Wong Kar-Wai.
