Striking Back
Striking Back
1996, Chinese. Directed by Chang-feng Fu.
A group of talented young men with fanciful notions form a film studio. However, after years of bad business, caught between lost ideals and reality, they decide to condescend to the market and make a kitschy action movie in the Hollywood fashion. In the meanwhile, every one of them attempt to find their own reflections in the filming process, therefore creating a pandemonium of contesting creativities both inside and outside the film they are making.
