Meat and Three Veg 2007

Directed by Zi'en Cui

A documentary pastiche about living in contemporary China, constituted by images of immigrant workers’ on-street KTV singing; open-air community dancing parties; the campus life and extracurricular activities of high school and college students; the job of killing mosquitoes done by children of migrant workers; fragments of gay love stories; the wedding of a film director; as well as a farmer coming from their hometown to Beijing, kneeling on a flyover seeking justice. This documentary film is intended to present a kaleidoscopic view of everyday life in contemporary China.
