Jia Zhang Ke's ambitious film follows
the lives of four friends over a turbulent
10 year period of Chinese history, from
1979 to 1989.
In the small town of Fenyang, in the
remote western province of Shanxi, the
teenage members of a state theatre
troupe stage propaganda plays in praise
of Mao. But as the country opens up to
the free market and implements wide-
ranging reform, their lives are irrevocably
changed as the world around them is
|
|
|
 |
|
transformed by the music, fashions and other cultural influences of the West.
Named after a hit 80s Chinese pop song, 'Platform' gives a vivid insight into modern China and absorbingly documents the sweeping social changes experienced by its people. |
