China films

“Dead Pigs” is like the novel of today’s China Tom Wolfe has yet to write: bitingly satirical, trenchantly observant, with characters from the entire social gamut.

“Free and Easy” is a vermouth-dry comedy that casts a cynical, bloodshot eye on contemporary Chinese society.

Recommended for its human drama and the genuine outrage it inspires, the documentary “Plastic China” is screening at this year’s Sundance Festival.

Livelier than you'd expect, “The Iron Ministry” is recommended for those who want to experience a slightly claustrophobic Chinese rail journey.
