Movie Haiku:Four stories of violence & despair in contemporary China, all based on actual news footage. Look not for connections because there are none... is that the point? This is our 3rd Jia film & Jan thinks he is going steadily downhill even as his reputation grows, but Rich thinks this is an important film... even if it is not especially good.
