Director's statement
The whole film owns a unique aesthetic temperament with literary and art thoughts. There are six paragraphs about investments and another six paragraphs about dreams, with both self-mockery and self-communion, yet with both self-abuse and self-restraint. The road of Chen Feng is like a Mobius Strip and he is going through dream after dream just like Inceptionand cannot get out. He knows more about what film actually is than those dumb investors. However, he has to stay in someone else’s shadow and cannot pursue his dream. He will keep wandering and raving on his dark road to film, vowing to put the torch of film back to its own place, to return film to film, and to demand justice to film.
