China’s Opening and Closing In The 80’s
Try entering the keyword "intellectuals" and shift the timeline to the period after the Cultural Revolution. What kind of landscape emerges from the intricate intertwining of history and individual lives? Is it the yearning for freedom, the pursuit of art, unrestrained sexuality, or perhaps the spoken and unspoken madness and rebellion between people? The 1980s can truly be called a magnificent cultural renaissance for China.

Encore, Before the Goodbye
"My Bucket List" holds no grand dreams, only 100 little things yet undone, and a "see you tomorrow" that was never properly spoken. The same goes for "Encore: Before Saying Goodbye"—here, eternity is left unmentioned; there is only the desire to perform one last song for oneself before the lights go down. The scars of youth, the terror at the edge of the boxing ring, the wordless closeness between strangers, and the farewells quietly practiced in daily life—six films, each rehearsing the very same question: If only an encore remains, what sound do you wish to leave behind?
