If you loved Still Life, try Platform
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Jia Zhangke, and they both carry the bittersweet, slow burn mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Still Life, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Platform is
Famine meets Waiting for Godot in a freezing Sichuan theater. A 1970s troupe survives on thin rehearsal rations while state parades eat the village’s lunch. The troupe’s post-revolution party trick? A human stack whose collapse decides who eats next. Jia Zhangke’s quarter-century time capsule rides on a single communal meal the actors keep dropping.
