24 CITY is the new film from China’s most noted contemporary filmmaker, Jia Zhang-ke. Shot in disorientingly vivid high-def video, the latest tale in Jia’s ongoing chronicle of the transformations upending his country fuses documentary and fiction to paint a portrait of the new, hypercapitalist China.
