**Welcome film lovers and culture enthusiasts!** Join us for a magical summer night under the stars at Parc de Bruxelles for a free outdoor screening of the visually stunning masterpiece, *The Assassin* (聶隱娘). This event is part of the L’Heure d’Été festival, celebrating Taiwanese cinema! ### 📅 **Event Details** * **Date:** Thursday, 2 July * **Time:** 22:00 (We recommend arriving a bit earlier to grab a good spot!) * **Location:** VAUX HALL - Parc de Bruxelles * **Price:** Free (No reservation required) * **Language:** Mandarin (ZH) with French and Dutch subtitles ### 🎞️ **About the Film: The Assassin (2015)** *Directed by Hou Hsiao-Hsien (Best Director, Cannes Film Festival 2015)* *Starring Shu Qi, Chen Chang, Yun Zhou* In 9th-century China, Nie Yinniang, a formidable assassin trained since childhood, is tasked with killing a powerful military governor... who happens to be none other than her former fiancé. Torn between duty and her feelings, she must choose her destiny. It is a breathtakingly beautiful film that redefines the martial arts genre with poetic elegance. ### 🇹🇼 **About the Festival: L’Heure d’Été – TAIPEI** For its 15th anniversary, Cinéma Galeries invites you to travel to Taipei—a city of millions of neon lights, drifting seamlessly between tradition and modernity. Taipei embodies a complex, hybrid identity shaped by Han, Japanese, Indigenous, and Chinese cultures. This year's festival brings the legendary figures of the Taiwanese New Wave (such as Hou Hsiao-hsien, Edward Yang, and Ang Lee) into dialogue with a new generation of filmmakers. Together, their films explore the deep connections between tradition and modernity, memory and identity, turning everyday Taiwanese life into cinematic poetry. ### 💡 **What to bring / Good to know:** * Since this is a *Plein Air* (outdoor) event at night, we highly recommend bringing a light jacket, a cozy blanket, or a sweater as it can get chilly in Brussels after sunset. **Let’s meet up, enjoy some world-class cinema, and experience the cultural heartbeat of Taipei together. See you there!**

Chaque mois, nous parcourons un tronçon de la Promenade Verte en mêlant marche douce et pratique de Qigong en pleine nature. Au fil du parcours, nous ferons des pauses pour pratiquer des mouvements simples de Qigong, accessibles à tous, afin de : * harmoniser la respiration, * libérer les tensions accumulées, * s’ancrer profondément dans la nature environnante. *** ### **🎒 Infos pratiques** * Activité ouverte à tous niveaux, aucune expérience en Qigong requise. * Vêtements confortables et adaptés à la météo. * Chaussures de marche conseillées (terrain parfois TREShumide). * Apporter une gourde d’eau. *** ### **🔗 Réservations** 📲 Inscription obligatoire via Meetup pour garantir une bonne organisation. Nombre de places limitées afin de garder un cadre convivial et respectueux. *** We begin with a gentle walk to reach a calm practice spot. During the session, you’ll be introduced to Qigong — a simple and effective practice rooted in traditional Chinese movement. It combines slow movements, breathing, and attention to help release tension, improve mobility, and calm the nervous system. The exercises are easy to follow, even if it’s your first time. The focus is not on performance, but on sensation: moving with awareness, breathing more freely, and allowing the body to reset. Depending on the session, we may explore sequences like **Ba Duan Jin (Eight Brocades)**, each with its own focus on circulation, joints, and overall energy. We close with a quiet return walk, giving the body time to integrate — often leaving with a clearer mind and a lighter, more grounded feeling.
