An elephant sitting still

Hu Bo China 2018 · Script: Hu Bo · Performers: Yu Zhang, Yuchang Peng, Uvin Wang…

One of the revelations of the last year. Before his tragic suicide, the Chinese director Hu bo left a work that caught the attention of directors like Gus van Sant, Wang Bin and Béla Tarr. There is nothing. Portrait of the youth of his generation, An elephant sitting still It places us in the north of China, in a post-industrial city shrouded in fog. Surrounded by violence, a group of individuals dream of fleeing to Manzhouli City, where they say there is an elephant that remains sitting, oblivious to the problems of the world. Four hours of pure cinema. G.LEON
