Yumen
Two Chinese avant-garde artists and an American experimental filmmaker have collaborated on a stunningly beautiful Chinese experimental-fiction-documentary that dazzlingly combines ghost stories and “ruin porn” to form a celluloid psycho-collage. The filmmakers bring the ancient poetic history of the now largely abandoned oil drilling town of Yumen to life with their cast of ghosts, artists, vagabond dancers and singers. The film is preceded by a series of recent Chinese short films. 8:00-11:00 pm
