Beijing Natives – 北京土著

Beijing Natives(北京土著)by 张伯宏, Chinese folk music in Flash animation. About 90% of the lyrics and the Flash are about the native culture of Beijing reflected in the everyday life, such as the melodic hollers of street vendors, the aroma of jasmine tea in the Siheyuan, the intoxicating bouquet in the Hutong, the Beijing opera and comic dialogues, the food, the drinks, the clothes, the people, etc. A repeated line, “Beijing Natives are somewhat said,” conveys the Beijing Natives’ nostalgia for their disappearing cultural heritage as the towering buildings replace the city’s old Hutongs.

How wings are attached to the Backs of Angels

Now Playing in the YouTube Screening Room:

http://youtube.com/ytscreenroom

Craig Welch takes viewers inside a surreal, meticulously crafted world to meet a mysterious protagonist and his otherworldly visitor.

In this surreal exposition, we meet a man, obsessed with control. His intricate gadgets manipulate yet insulate, as his science dissects and reduces. How exactly are wings attached to the back of angels? In this invented world drained of emotion, where everything goes through the motions, he is brushed by indefinite longings. Whether he can transcend his obsessions and fears is the heart of the matter. A film without words.

Directed by : Craig Welch. Produced in 1996
