I watched it
A Chinese woman lives quietly, celebrating the prosperous Belle Epoque with songs and dances. The female protagonist does not have a single line of dialogue throughout the entire film.
It is a very abstract film, like a pseudo-documentary, with the personal style of director Jia Zhangke
It is like a collection of Chinese golden songs mixed with the feeling of ghosts and animals, depicting the changes in China in the 21st century and the changes in the life of a generation (like the secondary montage in Jia Zhangke’s film). The overall feeling is like a silent film, and the main character does not even have dialogue!
What a true genius!
Director Jia Zhangke used the material he shot to create such a powerful work! Although there is not a single line of dialogue in the film, it richly expresses the inner feelings of the female protagonist Qiaoqiao.
Jia Zhangke is still strong!
Although the picture quality is very old (after all, it is the material), the cinematography is very good, so the images expressed are not only rustic, but also have a strangeness in the dream core, and are familiar with the style. County literature.
