Welcomed by Ox-Head and Horse-Face, shepherds of the dead, he recounts his life with the \"New-New\" opera troupe before his turn at the Bridge of Forgetfulness. Starting in the 1920s, Qiu's tale melds with China's tumultuous century into the Second Sino-Japanese War, the Great Leap Forward, and other socio-political revolutions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInspired by his own grandfather's life, Qiu Jiongjiong's A New Old Play is a sumptuous intermingling of personal and national history. It transforms China's many pivots into a vaudevillian theater of its own, culminating in a spiritual rumination on the passage of time and the role of the artist forced to weather the storm of history. Drawing from his background as a visual artist, Qiu arrives at a masterful, painterly style: flowing tableaux, carefully art-directed sets and ingenious hand-made miniatures bringing the act of remembrance into a delightful, phantasmagorical realm.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecial Features and Technical Specs:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort Film \"Ode to Joy\" (2008, 31 min)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaking of (2021, 19 min)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBooklet Including Behind-the-Scene Photos, Storyboards, and Interview with Director\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional English Subtitles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional Chinese Subtitles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eREGION-FREE\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Unobstructed View","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42681573933256,"sku":"VINKANI-010","price":48.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/8486\/3688\/files\/newoldplaybd.jpg?v=1684023158","url":"https:\/\/videomatica.com\/es\/products\/new-old-play-a-blu-ray","provider":"Videomatica Ltd (since 1983)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
