518    Originally produced by Documentary Educational Resources 
       in 2004. 
520    Tie Xi is a massive industrial complex in northeastern 
       China's Shenyang province. Built during the Japanese 
       occupation of China and restructured with Soviet support 
       after World War II, it is the country's oldest and largest
       manufacturing center. From the postwar period to the 1980s,
       the thriving factories employed more than a million 
       workers, but like other state-run industries they began 
       their collapse in the early 1990s. In West of the tracks, 
       filmmaker Wang Bing documents the slow, inevitable death 
       of an obsolete manufacturing system. Between 1999 and 2001
       he meticulously filmed the lives of the last factory 
       workers, a class of people once promised glory during the 
       Chinese revolution. Now trapped by economic change, the 
       workers become deeply moving film heroes in this modern 
       epic. The film is an engrossing portrait of Chinese 
       society in transition. Cahiers du Cinema compares Wang 
       Bing to the great Russian writers and calls his film "a 
       masterful production, an open file on realism. "West of 
       the tracks" opens up a new and radical era in 
       cinematography."
