Notre avis
Few filmmakers have gone so far to dramatize historical atrocities. In disarmingly gorgeous, stark, and widescreen B&W photography, alongside a minimal score, Lu Chuan visualizes the era to reveal the humanity and pinpoint the villainy. This is a heart-breaking, unmissable landmark film.
