Jia zhangke mubi

Jia Zhangke is a leading film director in the People's Republic of China, belonging to the so-called "Sixth Generation," which succeeded the "Fifth Generation" exemplified by directors such as Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige. While the Fifth Generation films largely specialized in spectacular, mythical epics that were deeply infused with social critique, often drawing government censorship, the Sixth Generation predominantly makes realistic films set in contemporary China, often far from the reach of state censorship. The financing for such films often comes from foreign sources, rather than relying on government funding. The works of directors like Jia, Zhang Yuan ("East Palace, West Palace," 1997), and Wang Xiaoshuai ("Beijing Bicycle," 2001) are often made without government approval, and hence largely circulate in China only vi
