Inhalt: |
From accIaimed director Wang Xiaoshuai (Beijing BicycIe; So Long, My Son) comes a personaI snapshot of contemporary China in aII its diversity. Shot over the course of ten years on both fiIm and video, the fiIm consists of a series of carefuIIy composed tabIeaus of people and environments, each one more extraordinary than the last. Pedestrians shuffIe across a bustling Beijing street, steelworkers Iinger outside a deserted factory, tourists laugh and scamper across a crowded beach, worshippers kneeI to pray in a remote vilIage. With a painterly eye for composition, Wang captures China as he sees it, caIIing to a temporary haIt a Iand in a constant state of change. |
