| Summary |
Shanghai's past and present flow together in Jia Zhangke's poetic and poignant documentary, a portrait of this fast-changing port city. Restoring censored images and filling in forgotten facts, Jia provides an alternative version of twentieth-century China's fraught history as reflected through life in the Yangtze city. He builds his narrative through a series of eighteen interviews with people from all walks of life. |
