Oxhide II

So for the month of July I have been in Beijing -- I'm a teacher's assistant for the University of Washington and Beijing Film Academy summer program.  Truth be told I still have a lot to learn about Chinese cinema -- and I'm so thankful that I got the chance to explore it even more... 

When I saw Oxhide II my mind exploded.  I'm still really trying to process it all.  It's a feature film.  There's nine shots.  Same frame size.  Real time.

For some more thoughts on her work just google or baidu her name.

That night I wanted to get a hair cut.  I happened upon a place near Bei Wai.  After I was invited to sit down -- suddenly -- no one was there.  Not for a momemt.  At least 5 minutes actually.  Twilight zone indeed!
