Audience Member One of rare Chinese films dealing with industrial theme, in a modern cinematic language. The final scene is especially suggestive and meaningful, the domino (symbolizing the power collapse) takes place almost in a dreamlike scene. The sunset is editted with the tempo of music. Powerful and illuminating. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
