Abstract audio-visual aesthetics deconstructs Chinese life

Jia Zhangke also expressed his opinion on the choice of music: "The reason why I chose to use symphony instead of pop songs (this time) is that the method and theme of telling stories are different. Pop songs rely more on the lyrics, and it is a better and more abstract way to connect different elements with symphonies. " Director Jia Zhangke revealed, "At first, when I was thinking about how to construct this film, I thought about using a linear structure arranged in chronological order to unfold the stories of these four generations of writers, but when editing, I began to realize that there were some common themes, issues and problems that China had been dealing with, which surpassed the original linear order and the film began to become very abstract."

Jia Zhangke pointed out, "Shooting them is like shooting a novel, because there are four groups of characters, a long historical time, and basic problems that each of us has to experience and every era has to experience." Therefore, when constructing this documentary, we chose to connect with 18 themes, and face the 18 keywords that everyone can’t avoid in life, such as eating, falling in love, returning home, new and old, traveling, illness, living, mother and father, and use them as the theme chapters to tell the story, face the truth of the times and arouse the deep feelings of Chinese people.
