Beijing, Niuyue

This movie is exquisite in every way. The acting is superb, the cinematography is stunning and gorgeous and the story is captivating. The voice in this film of a woman caught between two worlds and her heart is relevant, timely and achingly meaningful. I cannot recommend this film more highly. This film creates an intimate world of a woman who is caught in indecision, she is almost a female Hamlet, unable to act because the two men who love her only project themselves on to her. Lost in translation is her version of herself. Rain Li has composed a breathtaking film that speaks to the heart of a woman who has not given herself permission to choose herself.
