Presented by The Garden Cinema’s Chinese Cinema Project.

This screening is followed by a remote Q&A with director Zheng Lu Xinyuan, moderated by Victor Fan (KCL).

Zheng Lu Xinyuan’s debut feature, which won Golden Tiger Award at Rotterdam Film Festival 2020.

When Muzi returns home to Hangzhou for Chinese New Year, she finds the city covered in mist. Failing to create meaningful connections with those around her, she takes comfort only in solitude and deserted city spaces at night. Intimacy briefly arises around cigarettes, food, songs and whistles, but no one or nothing ever accesses Muzi's melancholic state of mind – except for the camera.
