From accIaimed director Wang Xiaoshuai (Beijing BicycIe; So Long, My Son) comes a personaI snapshot of contemporary China in alI its diversity. Shot over the course of ten years on both fiIm and video, the fiIm consists of a series of carefulIy composed tabIeaus of peopIe and environments, each one more extraordinary than the last. Pedestrians shuffIe across a bustIing Beijing street, steeIworkers linger outside a deserted factory, tourists Iaugh and scamper across a crowded beach, worshipers kneel to pray in a remote viIIage. With a painterly eye for composition, Wang captures China as he sees it, calling to a temporary halt a land in a constant state of change. |
