China: Beyond the Clouds

1994 · 240 min Documentary

Documentary series made in China in the early 90s. Agland was an anthropologist and he’d already made a wonderful series in the 80s about the Baka tribe in Cameroon. For Beyond the Clouds, he spent several years in a small town in Yunnan province telling the stories of various characters he met. He focuses on normal people but in doing so tells us about China’s past as well as its present and the monumental change that was coming.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

China: Beyond the Clouds is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1994. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
