I Wish I Knew
Jia Zhangke's I Wish I Knew will be screened at Pomona College Museum of Art/Media Studies.
When:
April 13, 2011 7:30pm to 12:00am
Where
China’s most significant filmmaker of the décade, Jia Zhangke has done it again, with another alluring hybrid of documentary and fiction. Here Jia weaves a dense texture between amorously shot footage of contemporary Shanghai and the films the city created or inspired. Peeking through the gaps of an architecture menaced by permanent urban renewal, he finds the traces of a romantic or brutal past, and echoes the voices of survivors or those who went into exile.
