Q&A with Director Feng Xiaogang (冯小刚) and
Screenwriter/Novelist Yan Geling (严歌苓) following the screening!
Feng Xiaogang began his show business career as a stage designer for an army art troupe. His latest feature strikes an autobiographical note as it follows a group of dancers in the People’s Liberation Army from their idealistic youth in the 1960s, performing Cultural Revolution standards, to their post-Mao adulthood marked by the twin shocks of war with Vietnam and market liberalization. Feng’s roving camera weaves an affecting tapestry of individual lives and musical passion intersecting China’s own momentous transformations of the past four decades.
