68th San Sebastian International Film Festival

One of the few events of the season which could take place “physically”, with the presence of the jury members. The FIPRESCI prize went to Wu Hai with the following motivation: “This film gives a thoughtful inside in the social dynamics of contemporary China and connects the precise look at a middle-class couple in trouble with almost surreal moments. Strong imaging shows us lesser known part of western China. The inner struggles of the main character leads us to a close look into the abyss of a society.”
