Still Life ***
Jia Zhang-ke, 2008
China
@ IFC Center

The first great new movie I've seen in 2008. Humorous yet keenly aware of losses surrounding and caused by the Three Gorges Dam project. Surreal at points, sometimes via CGI and fantasy, other times simply by way of the bizarre nature of contemporary China.
