This sharp and sassy “mockumentary” follows two foul-mouthed twenty-something art school graduates (Wang Mingming and her co-conspirator Guo Yue) who, as job prospects elude them, decide to film each other’s lives instead, passing the camera back and forth. “My best toy is my small camera, not pretty boys, because it can be a gun sometimes,” says Wang. – Bérénice Reynaud
