"What Time Is It There?" is a 2001 film by Tsai Ming-liang. It stars Lee Kang-sheng, Chen Shiang-chyi, and Lu Yi-Ching. The film tells two parallel stories, one about the life of a street vendor (Lee) in Taipei following the death of his father; the other about a woman he meets briefly (Chen) as she heads off on a trip of uncertain duration to Paris. Lee's character, who sells watches on the streets of Taipei, sells his own watch to Chen and then finds himself overcome by a desire to set every clock he sees to Paris time.

Jean-Pierre Léaud, the lead actor in François Truffaut's "The 400 Blows" and other Antoine Doinel series, has a cameo appearance in this film.
