Another breakthrough by a director who has never stopped pushing either himself or his idea of what a Chinese movie can do and be.

[S]o confident is this director’s touch that MOUNTAINS MAY DEPART holds you with the humanity of its telling rather than the gloom of its conclusions.

Little White Lies
With two very simple but quite beautiful sequences, Zhang-ke reflects on the ephemeral nature of the human questions. [Full Review in Spanish]

Rating: 3.5/5 --
An alternately rapturous and ponderous story of Chinese tradition resisting the eraser of progress.

The movie would actually be much improved with some very heavy, very skilled editing.

A Reel of One's Own
Product Description:
This intimate epic from writer/director Jia Zhang Ke explores the rapid pace of China's modernization through the lens of one family's choices over the course of 26 years. In the city of Fenyang in 1999, a woman named Shen Tao (Zhao Tao) is torn between a coal miner and a nouveau-riche businessman. The movie then jumps ahead to 2014, when a divorced Tao is estranged from both her wealthy husband and her spoiled-brat son Dollar. The story then concludes in 2025 Australia, where Dollar (Dong Zijian) is a college student struggling to reconnect with his past and the culture of his birth.
