A Soul Haunted by Painting

130 minit 1994

What does it take for a woman to claim her own canvas in a world that refuses to see her? Set against the vivid backdrop of early 20th century China, A Soul Haunted by Painting tells the true story of Pan Yuliang, who rises from a life of hardship to become one of the nation's most celebrated—and controversial—artists. Defying societal expectations and cultural taboos, she pours her longing, pain, and defiance into every brushstroke, turning her tumultuous life into a gallery of raw emotion. This 1994 biographical drama artfully blends romance, history, and artistic struggle, exploring themes of identity, freedom, and the cost of creative passion. Viewers are invited into a visually rich journey that questions the boundaries of tradition and the power of self-expression, making it essential viewing for anyone moved by stories of resilience and beauty born from adversity.
