The Hedonists (Short 2016)

The Hedonists: Directed by Jia, Zhangke. With Sanming Han, Jindong Liang, Yuan Wenqian, Jia, Zhangke. An engaging drama about several unemployed Shanxi coalminers looking for work.

“Beautifully shot, captures a monotonous yet intimate vignette of the relationship amongst people within the working class. The tone switches between funny and serious throughout making hard to figure out the message behind the heavy political themes. Over all concise and well done slice of life. Excellent score!”
