In this charming coming-of-age film from director Jia Zhang Ke, a group of Chinese performance artists gradually come out of their shells to embrace their own talents during the country's transition from Maoism in the 1980s. With new respect for westernization and pop culture, the group changes and evolves along with their country -- socially, politically and personally. Hong Wei Wang, Jing Dong Liang and Tian Yi Yang star.
