Synopsis

Huang Weikai’s experimental news documentary captures, with remarkable formal freedom, the anarchy, violence, and brittle anxiety animating China’s major cities today. The footage, shot in and around Guangzhou (formerly Canton) in China’s south is all provided by TV news reporters, friends and colleagues of the director. They donated this material to him, since it is all unshowable on China’s heavily controlled television networks.

The resulting film is a collage, a “city symphony” of bizarre urban scenes, disasters, police actions, car crashes, shakedowns, wandering pigs, madmen, and abandoned babies, Huang shatters and reconstructs a world that’s barely comprehensible, though one whose energy is palpable: vibrant, dangerous, and scary.
